W.Rooney may return to the line-up for the match against "Anderlecht"

"Manchester United" captain Wayne Rooney has recovered from an ankle injury and can help the "Red Devils" in the Europa League match against Brussels-based "Anderlecht."

The striker missed the last 4 matches, and will start on the bench against the most successful Belgian club.

However, despite the captain's return, some players like Phil Jones, Chris Smalling, and Juan Mata will not be available due to injuries.

Coach Jose Mourinho also revealed that Argentine goalkeeper Sergio Romero will start the match instead of David de Gea.

The United manager also emphasized the importance of Rooney to the team:

"He is a player who can help us a lot and be very important if we need a goal."

The first leg between the "United" and "Anderlecht" teams in Belgium ended in a 1-1 draw.

The second leg of the quarter-final at "Old Trafford" will start today at 22:00.
