The starting lineups for the highly anticipated all-English Europa League final between Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur have been officially confirmed ahead of the showdown.
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has opted for an attacking setup with Mason Mount and Amad Diallo positioned behind striker Rasmus Hojlund. Captain Bruno Fernandes will control the midfield alongside Casemiro, while Andre Onana takes his place between the posts.
Tottenham's squad selection reflects manager Ange Postecoglou's tactical adjustment to compensate for the absence of key creative players James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, and Lucas Bergvall. In response to these significant absences, Postecoglou has prioritized physicality in his lineup.
The Spurs midfield features a robust trio of Yves Bissouma, Rodrigo Bentancur, and Pape Sarr. In attack, Richarlison partners with Dominic Solanke, while captain Heung-Min Son has been named among the substitutes.
Confirmed Lineups
Tottenham XI: Vicario; Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Bissouma, Sarr; Johnson, Solanke, Richarlison
Tottenham Subs: Austin, Whiteman, Spence, Davies, Danso, Gray, Ajayi, Moore, Odobert, Tel, Son, Scarlett
Manchester United XI: Onana; Yoro, Maguire, Shaw; Mazraoui, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dorgu; Diallo, Mount, Hojlund
Manchester United Subs: Bayindir, Amass, Dalot, Evans, Heaven, Lindelof, Collyer, Eriksen, Mainoo, Ugarte, Garnacho, Zirkzee
The final holds significant importance for both clubs, as the winner will not only claim the Europa League trophy but also secure qualification for next season's UEFA Champions League competition.
This all-English final represents a rare opportunity for both teams to salvage their seasons with European glory, following campaigns that have fallen short of expectations in domestic competitions.
