The 21-year-old England international has started only two of United's five Premier League games and was an unused substitute in the 1-0 defeat by Aston Villa on Saturday.

LONDON - Black players in the England soccer team have been subjected to a storm of online racist abuse after their defeat in the final of Euro 2020, drawing wide condemnation from the squad's manager Gareth Southgate along with royalty and politicians.

"Inglaterra realmente juega un fútbol increíblemente asustado. Si eso es lo que hacen con el plantel que tienen, creo que es miserable". La frase la dijo el ex-futbolista neerlandés, Pierre van Hooijdonk, en la previa de la final de la Euro entre los Tres Leones e Italia y ahora vuelven a resonar, luego de que los ingleses comenzaran ganando la definición, pero terminarán con el corazón roto al caer en los penales ante la Azzurra.
Hasta ayer, Inglaterra había convertido cuatro goles en sus cuatro partidos en esta Euro 2020: uno a Croacia, cero a Escocia, uno a República Checa y dos a Alemania. Para muchos una cifra mezquina para un plantel lleno de talento ofensivo y candidato al título. Ante Ucrania, sin embargo, esa austeridad frente al arco rival se olvidó por completo. Inglaterra ganó 4-0 y terminó jugando con un estilo avasallador.
El jogo bonito o beautiful game de los ingleses se propició en gran parte por la tempranera apertura de la cuenta.
