Jose Mourinho is facing an injury crisis ahead of Manchester United’s clash against West Bromwich Albion on Saturday (1 April), with seven first-team players unavailable through injury or suspension.

The Portuguese manager will be without Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, Paul Pogba and Marouane Fellaini, who are injured and unlikely to be fit for the Baggies’ visit, while Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Ander Herrera will serve the second of their three match suspension.

Wayne Rooney has also been out with a knee injury for the last three weeks and remains a doubt, but according to the Mirror, the England international is the closest to making a return and could be fit ahead of the clash at Old Trafford.
