Matthijs de Ligt will not play for Manchester United against Aston Villa after missing the last three matches with a back injury.
Manager Ruben Amorim said no injured players have returned to full fitness, leaving the squad short of defensive options.
Harry Maguire is also out with an injury, and Noussair Mazraoui is away at the Africa Cup of Nations, so will not be available for selection.
Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo are with their national teams at the Africa Cup and will miss the match despite featuring in the recent game against Bournemouth.
Manchester United sit sixth in the Premier League with 26 points and trail the leaders by ten points after recent mixed results without de Ligt.
The game against Aston Villa kicks off at 16:30 GMT on Sunday 21 December 2025 and will be played at Villa Park.
