The Portugal international missed United's 1-0 FA Cup third round win over Villa on Monday but is keeping his "fingers crossed" that he can return to action at the weekend.
Heading into what could be one of the biggest years of his career, Weston McKennie is playing superbly right now. The Juventus midfielder has played every second for the club in 2022, including all 120 minutes in the Supercoppa Italia on Wednesday at the San Siro. Though Inter Milan pulled off a 2-1 comeback to take the trophy, McKennie scored a great goal, after which we saw how much his teammates love him — or at least how much they really want an excuse to touch his gorgeous hair.

Marcelo Flores es oficialmente un jugador de la Sub-18 del Arsenal. Sin embargo, los Gunners poco a poco comienzan a foguear al mediocampista mexicano en divisiones mayores del club y hasta lo han invitado a entrenamientos con el primer equipo.
