When Manchester United plays Manchester City on Sunday, the seasoned Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo might start again.



Erik ten Hag, the manager, has injury concerns in the attack, so the captain of Portugal might make a rare start against City.

Since Brentford's 4-0 loss to Real Madrid earlier in the season, Ronaldo has not made a Premier League starting appearance.

He was intent on leaving Old Trafford in the summer but made a U-turn after a move failed to materialise.

Ten Hag prefers to play either Anthony Martial or Marcus Rashford up front in most games.

Rashford picked up a muscle injury in the 3-1 win over Arsenal earlier this month and is doubtful for the Manchester derby on Sunday.

Anthony Martial, meanwhile, is in a similar position, having not trained fully this week with the rest of the squad.

The Telegraph reports that should Rashford and Martial fail to return for the City match, Ronaldo would lead the attack.
