Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed that Tahith Chong will be in the squad for Monday’s FA Cup clash with Chelsea.

The Premier League giants are without the injured Anthony Martial and Jesse Lingard for Monday’s match, which will give Chong an opportunity to come into the squad.

Solskjaer told his press conference on Friday, “We’ve got still forward options but Angel and Chongy have been training with us all week, so there’s a big chance they’ll be involved.

“It’s a chance for anyone who plays, Alexis, Romelu, Chongy or Angel. Anthony and Jesse have done really well for us, they’re vital but then again with Rom and Alexis, they’ve got different skill sets and will be able to show what they can do. So we need to gel a team together for Monday.”

Chong made his Manchester United debut earlier this season in the cup against Reading.
