Cristiano Ronaldo in Manchester United squad for Crystal Palace clash despite injury fears

Cristiano Ronaldo is in the Manchester United squad for Sunday's Premier League clash with Crystal Palace despite fears over the forward's fitness.

The Portugal international allegedly suffered a knee injury during Thursday's 3-2 win over Arsenal, which led to his withdrawal in the latter stages of the contest.

However, the Manchester Evening News have pictured Ronaldo arriving at The Lowry Hotel with the rest of the Man United squad on Saturday evening.

The 36-year-old has been in excellent form for the 20-time English champions this season, scoring 12 times in 16 appearances in all competitions.

Ronaldo netted a brace against Arsenal on Thursday, as new head coach Ralf Rangnick watched on from the stands, with the German officially beginning work with the club on Friday.

Nemanja Matic and Aaron Wan-Bissaka were both absent against the Gunners through injury, but the pair have also been pictured arriving with the rest of the squad on Saturday.
