Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has declared that Cameroon goalkeeper Andre Onana is fit for the Premier League match on Sunday while Fulham Coach Marco Silva is sweating over the fitness of Antonee Robinson and Ryan Sessegnon.
Softfootball can report that Onana will be part of the Red Devils travelling squad to Fulham this weekend after losing his spot to Turkish international Altay Bayindir in the match-day 1.
Speaking to Manchester United’s official club media, Amorim revealed that Ona is ready for the encounter but it would come too soon for the likes of Lisandro Martinez and Noussair Mazraoui despite both players training already.
Amorim said:
“Onana is ready to play like last week, so we will see in the game who is going to be keeper.”
“Licha is out, Nous is out. The rest of the guys are fit and ready to play.”
For Fulham, Robinson and Sessegnon missed last week’s 1-1 draw against Brighton for various reasons.
The Cottagers vice-captain, Robinson is still recovering from a minor knee surgery he underwent during the summer and although he has been training at the club’s Motspur Park facility, it is not sure if he is ready for action.
While Sessegnon missed the game last week against the Seagulls due to a knock he picked in Fulham’s last pre-season match before the start of the Premier League.
During the press conference ahead of the game on Sunday, Coach Silva is hoping for one of the left-backs to be ready for the game against the Mancunians.
He revealed:
“We are going to have another session [on Saturday], and we will take a decision on both Sessegnon and Robinson.”
“We didn’t want to take the risk with Sess last week. Calvin did so well [at Brighton] – [Isaac] Cuenca can play there too…”
Fulham and Manchester United will be chasing their first win in the 2025/26 Premier League season on Sunday.
