Amorim Restores Mazraoui to Manchester United Starting Lineup Against Tottenham
Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim has reinstated Moroccan international Noussair Mazraoui to the starting lineup for the team's Premier League match against Tottenham today, Saturday (13:30 GMT+1).
This decision comes after Mazraoui featured as a substitute in the last three matches, coming on in the 77th minute against Nottingham Forest and remaining on the bench for the fixtures against Brighton and Liverpool. This had raised questions about his current status within the squad.
Mazraoui missed the Sunderland match due to injury and was also absent against Brentford for the same reason, making his return to the starting XI against Tottenham highly anticipated by fans.
Mazraoui's last start was in Manchester United's match against Chelsea last September, where he played 64 minutes before being replaced by Matheus Cunha.
Mazraoui's return to the starting lineup comes less than two months before the start of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations. As a key player for the Moroccan national team, monitoring his readiness and form ahead of the tournament is crucial for Moroccan fans.
