MANCHESTER UNITED’s Europa League tie at Sheriff Tiraspol will go ahead this Thursday.
United said in a statement: “Following discussions with the relevant governing bodies and in line with guidance issued by the UK Government, we can confirm our UEFA Europa League fixture against FC Sheriff will take place as scheduled on Thursday evening in Moldova.”
Elsewhere, the Red Devils considered lining up a move for Paris Saint-Germain ace Leandro Parades before securing Casemiro, according to reports.
