Man Utd vs. Bournemouth: Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo decisions made as Red Devils confirm XI for Cherries contest

Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo are both in the Manchester United XI for Monday's Premier League contest with Bournemouth at Old Trafford.

The involvements of Mbeumo and Amad were in huge doubt, as the pair are preparing to join up with Cameroon and Ivory Coast respectively to participate in the Africa Cup of Nations.

However, Man United managed to reach an agreement with their national teams to release them after the Bournemouth clash, meaning that both are involved at Old Trafford.

The same cannot be said for Noussair Mazraoui, who is representing Morocco in the tournament, with the defender not in the squad against Bournemouth.

Matthijs de Ligt and Harry Maguire remain on the sidelines through injury, but there is a return to the squad for Benjamin Sesko, who has been absent since before the November international break due to a knee problem.

Sesko was struggling with a bout of food poisoning last week, but the summer arrival makes a bench which also includes Kobbie Mainoo.

As for Bournemouth, there will be eyes on Tyler Adams and Antoine Semenyo, with both players thought to be January transfer targets for the 20-time English champions.

Evanilson will lead the line for the Cherries, who have been unable to secure all three points in the Premier League since the end of October.
