Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits he'll make changes for their Carabao Cup quarterfinal with Everton.

Solskjaer confirmed that Jesse Lingard will be in the squad having not featured since the win at Brighton in the last round at the end of September.

Edinson Cavani could make his first start in five games after recovering from a groin injury, and Mason Greenwood may also return to the line-up after making way for Dan James against Leeds.

"Jesse will definitely be in the squad," said Solskjaer. "He's been working hard in training. He's been unfortunate with having to isolate a few times, being in close contact with Covid but not even having it himself.

"Edinson's been out with an injury for a while so we need to get him going, and Bruno is one that I also have to protect.

"Mason's fit enough to play. He was on the bench (against Leeds) and it just wasn't to be for him to come on. He will be involved in the squad unless something happens in the next couple of days."
