Manchester United interim boss Ralf Rangnick has confirmed a return for Cristiano Ronaldo but a Luke Shaw injury blow in his team news update.
Ronaldo missed last Saturday’s 1-1 Premier League draw with Leicester due to illness. The 37-year-old has continued to make an impact and his recent absence came after a hat-trick against Tottenham.

He confirmed that left-back Luke Shaw requires an operation on a previous leg injury. The England international came off at half-time against the Foxes.
Centre-back Raphael Varane, midfielder Scott McTominay and striker Edinson Cavani will also not feature against the Toffees.
“Cristiano is back again,” Rangnick told his pre-match press conference on Friday.
“Luke is still injured, we had to take him off at half-time, he’s had his problems with his leg where he had the operation in 2015.

“Cavani is still injured, Raphael Varane is still injured and will be missing out again tomorrow and the same is true for Scott McTominay.
