Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick confirms that Bruno Fernandes will be available to face Liverpool despite being involved in a car crash.

Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick has confirmed that Bruno Fernandes will be available to face Liverpool on Tuesday despite being involved in a car crash on Monday morning.

News emerged earlier today of the Portugal international's Porsche being involved in a car crash, although he managed to avoid any injuries.

Indeed, the 27-year-old still turned up for training at Carrington today and Rangnick confirmed that he will be involved against title-chasing Liverpool at Anfield on Tuesday night.

"Yes, he's training with the team, obviously the accident happened on the way to Carrington but as far as I know nobody was injured," Rangnick told reporters at his pre-match press conference.

"He trained with the team, he was okay and will be okay for tomorrow."

However, Manchester United will still be without Raphael Varane, who is yet to return to training, while Luke Shaw, Fred, Scott McTominay and Edinson Cavani also remain sidelined.

"Raphael [Varane] didn't train with the team, he was on the pitch with one of our rehab coaches," Rangnick added.

"In regard to injuries, we have the same situation as we had in the last two games."

Rangnick was also quizzed on the club's search for a new permanent boss, but insists that rumours of Erik ten Hag's imminent arrival will not affect his team's preparations for the Liverpool match.

"I don't know, this is an issue for the club, the board and as soon as there is something to announce the club will make that announcement," he added.

"It doesn't affect our preparations for tomorrow. You can see other teams are dropping points at the weekend. It's again about being consistent and at the end the team will probably finish fourth.

"As I said after the [Norwich] game we need to be more compact, find a better balance of what we can do in possession of the ball, we need to be more aggressive, more on the front foot but make sure we have all the players behind the ball, this is what we need to show against one of the best teams in producing chances and creating moments.

"Around the box we need to be on our very best defensively but still have a formation and approach to the game that we can be dangerous ourselves.

"It's up to us, we definitely will travel there tomorrow and try and get three points, this is what it's all about, it's about our situation, after the results we are still in the race for fourth but to stay in it we have to win almost every game.

"We might be the underdogs for most people but if we raise our level we have a chance."

Rangnick will be coming up against his compatriot Jurgen Klopp in the Anfield dugout, and the Man United boss was full of praise for his Liverpool counterpart.

"Before he came to Borussia Dortmund or started his coaching career at Mainz, he developed the club on a level, this is what modern management is all about," he told reporters.

"He's one of the best, if not the best coach not only now but over the past couple of years. If this should be a role model, it's no coincidence he came and they finished ninth, thereafter they made the necessary adaptations, they brought in the right players, built a squad and that's why they are where they are."

Manchester United currently sit fifth in the Premier League table, three points adrift of the top four and 19 behind Liverpool.

Liverpool won the reverse fixture 5-0 at Old Trafford in October, and are unbeaten in their last seven Premier League meetings with their old rivals.
