Ruben Amorim has made his first big Man United decision ahead of Premier League bow

Ruben Amorim has only been overseeing training at Manchester United for a few days but has already made his first major decision.

Amorim will take charge of his first match as United's new head coach this weekend when the Reds travel to face Ipswich Town on Sunday. The 39-year-old replaced Erik ten Hag in the Old Trafford dugout earlier this month and will look to take the club back to challenging for major silverware once again.

Injuries have been a cause for concern for United this season, even before Amorim's arrival. The new head coach has been working with the first-team squad this week in training for the first time, with players gradually returning following their involvement on international duty.

One player who has been on the sidelines with injury this season is Leny Yoro. United signed the centre-back from Lille in the summer, but a fractured metatarsal injury during pre-season has meant he is still waiting to make his competitive debut for his new club.

Yoro has recently returned to training for United this week as he nears full fitness. One of Amorim's first decisions as United head coach was to withdraw the defender from Under-21 duty this week.

United's Under-21s face Altrincham in the National League Cup on Tuesday night and recorded a 4-0 victory. It's understood that Yoro was scheduled to start the game, before Amorim took the decision to withdrawn the defender from the matchday squad to return to the first-team set-up.

A timeframe of three to four months was given for Yoro to return from the injury that he suffered at the start of August. It remains to be seen if the 19-year-old will be fit enough to make his Premier League debut against Ipswich on Sunday, in what would be a second major decision by Amorim.
