UNITED STARS HEAD OFF ON INTERNATIONAL DUTY
Numerous Manchester United team-mates could face each other on Friday 13 and Tuesday 17 November when the international break serves up some intriguing fixtures.
England have four Reds in their squad with the club's Player of the Month, Chris Smalling, being joined by Phil Jones, Michael Carrick and the country's recently-crowned record scorer Wayne Rooney. Their first opponents Spain have called up David De Gea and Juan Mata, who'll both be hoping to feature in Friday's friendly at Estadio José Rico Pérez in Alicante.
Four nights later, England will be at Wembley to meet France, who have named Anthony Martial andMorgan Schneiderlin in their squad for that match and the preceding clash with Germany. United's French duo could play against their Old Trafford colleague Bastian Schweinsteiger at the Stade de France on Friday.
Germany will then play neighbours Netherlands in Hanover on 17 November - the Dutch have United utility player Daley Blind and winger Memphis in their squad for the game against the world champions and the earlier encounter with Wales in Cardiff.
Marouane Fellaini, who missed Saturday's win over West Brom through injury, has been forced to withdraw from the Belgium squad for Italy's visit to Brussels on 13 November and the subsequent meeting with Mata and De Gea's Spain at the Koning Boudewifnstadion. Matteo Darmian is set to keep his place in the Italian squad who will host Romania in Bologna a few days after facing the Belgians.
Meanwhile, Northern Ireland manager Michael O'Neill is hopeful that United's Paddy McNair could still join up with his squad for Friday's visit of Latvia to Windsor Park, even though he has not been named on the initial 23-man list. The young defender is still recovering from an abdominal injury with O'Neill promising to "monitor him over the next couple of days."
Across the Atlantic, Argentina will face Brazil in a 2018 World Cup qualifier on Friday at the Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires. Reds duo Marcos Rojo and goalkeeper Sergio Romero are both in La Albiceleste's squad for that game and their other qualifying match away to Colombia at the Estadio Metropolitano Roberto Meléndez in Barranquilla.
