MANCHESTER UNITED MANAGER Jose Mourinho left Paul Pogba on the bench once more for Tuesday’s Champions League last 16, second leg against Sevilla with Marouane Fellaini making a surprise return instead.
Pogba, who joined United for a then world record £89 million from Juventus in 2016, sat out Saturday’s 2-1 victory over Liverpool due to injury and had been dropped by Mourinho for the first leg in Spain three weeks ago that ended 0-0.
Fellaini only returned from a five-week injury layoff for the final 20 minutes against Liverpool, but is preferred to Scott McTominay in one of two changes from the weekend as Jesse Lingard also replaces Juan Mata.
Marcus Rashford is rewarded for scoring twice on his first Premier League start of the year, while Alexis Sanchez keeps his place despite netting just once in nine appearances since joining from Arsenal in January.
Sevilla make one enforced change from the first leg as the injured Jesus Navas is replaced by Simon Kjaer.
The Danish defender is expected to slot into his natural position in central defence with Argentine international Gabriel Mercado moving to right-back.
