WHAT THEY SAID:Yes, we had a successful training week, Ten Hag said during a news conference on Friday. “He’s responding well, and he’s available for Sunday,” he added. “I believe he is prepared to begin.”

 

THE BIGGER PICTURE:Hojlund was United’s most expensive acquisition of the summer after the Red Devils decided not to bid for Harry Kane. He joined from Atalanta for £72 million. He did, however, arrive with a back ailment and has thus far been unable to participate in any games.

AND WHAT’S MORE:  Ten Hag described Reguilon as “very experienced” after signing him on a loan. He said, “He’s played for big clubs a lot of games, La Liga, Premier League, he has a very good background. He played for Real Madrid, Sevilla, and Atletico.” He is a fierce football player.
