Nigeria-eligible youngster Shola Shoretire is in contention to be included in the gameday squad when Manchester United take on AC Milan in a Europa League round-of-16 first leg tie at Old Trafford on Thursday, March 11.
Shoretire stands a good chance of being included in the Manchester United squad to face the Italian giants as manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is sweating over the fitness of attack-minded trio Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Edinson Cavani.
Things will become clearer if the Anglo-Nigerian starlet is omitted from the FA Youth Cup squad against Salford on Wednesday evening.
He cemented his place in Manchester United U23 as a 16-year-old before he was promoted to the first team bubble last month shortly after turning 17.
In 14 matches in the Premier League 2 this season, Shoretire scored 6 goals and he showed his creativity by providing four assists.
