Manchester United are gearing up for the all-important Manchester derby on Sunday against their noisy neighbours Manchester City and Ruben Amorim will be delighted with the surprise return of one particular star.
The Portuguese head coach had explained that Kobbie Mainoo had a chance of making the matchday squad and the Carrington graduate was seen arriving at Old Trafford.
But in a shock twist, Luke Shaw was also spotted arriving at the Theatre of Dreams with his boot bag, which indicates he will be part of the squad.

The England international has missed four months of action since the ex-Sporting CP boss’ arrival and his return could be a huge boost given Lisandro Martinez and Ayden Heaven’s absence.
The 20-time English league champions do not have a left-footed centre-back option and Shaw has excelled in a three-man system in the past.
