Malacia, 25, has been limited to six first-team appearances this season following a long-standing knee injury that cost him all of last season, and he has been touted for a loan move for the second half of the season as United eye Lecce wing-back Patrick Dorgu as a strong fit for Ruben Amorim’s system.
The Dutchman, a £13million signing from Feyenoord in 2022, came on as a second-half substitute in Thursday’s 2-1 Europa League win over Rangers, having been brought off the bench during United’s FA Cup penalty shoot-out win over Arsenal two weeks ago.
Tyrell Malacia has said he wants to be at Manchester United in order to be tested against the best as he continues to be linked with a move away from Old Trafford this month.
Malacia also started the Premier League game against Arsenal last month, with the two games against the Gunners pitting him against Bukayo Saka and Raheem Sterling.
The result came on the back of a 2-2 draw away to Premier League leaders Liverpool as United appeared to turn a corner after four straight defeats.
