Jose Mourinho has said Henrikh Mkhitaryan could return to the Manchester United team for the Carabao Cup tie with Bristol City on Wednesday.
“It’s possible he is involved,” Mourinho said. “At the moment we are playing [Juan] Mata, [Marcus] Rashford, [Jesse] Lingard or [Anthony] Martial, [Romelu] Lukaku so on the bench being Ibra [Zlatan Ibrahimovic] and one of the other ones, Martial or Rashford and there is no space for everyone because you need balance on the bench, too.”
Bristol City are third in the Championship after a run of four straight wins.
They have already beaten Premier League sides Watford, Stoke and Crystal Palace to make it into the last eight of the Carabao Cup and Mourinho insists he will not take Lee Johnson’s side lightly.
