Details

Manchester United have had a rather difficult start to the season, collecting only 18 points from 12 Premier League matches. With no European competitions and an early exit from the EFL Cup against Grimsby Town, many players have seen significantly less playing time compared to previous seasons.

Players such as Kobbie Mainoo, Joshua Zirkzee, and Aiden Healy could seek loan moves in the upcoming January transfer window.

As winter approaches, Rúben Amorim's squad must begin to establish some consistency. Inconsistent performances and poor form have also led to fewer opportunities for United's academy players.

18-year-old Shea Lacey made his first matchday squad last weekend against Crystal Palace but remained an unused substitute – a scenario that has occurred frequently this season.

Manchester United's U21 team has only four matches scheduled between November and January. Maintaining match fitness is crucial for these young players, so the club will arrange closed-door friendlies.

CentreDevils has learned that United will play a closed-door friendly against Arsenal at St. George's Park on December 6 (Saturday).

The match is expected to feature mainly U21 players, but some first-team members could also participate to aid their recovery from injury or maintain match sharpness.

Sources from Arsenal indicated that the London club played a closed-door friendly against Watford just yesterday, and Brazilian forward Gabriel Jesus also took part.

This suggests he might also be involved in the upcoming match against United.

This exclusive report is jointly published with the well-known Arsenal fan media reporter HandOfArsenal.
