AFTER what seems like an age, Manchester United are back in action as they head to Newcastle in the Premier League.

The Red Devils have not played in the Premier League for over two weeks, following their 1-0 win over Norwich on December 11, following an outbreak of Covid-19 at Carrington.

But Ralf Rangnick’s side can now lace up their boots as they take on Eddie Howe’s relegation-threatened Magpies.

After lot of positive tests over the last fortnight among his staff, the German defended his club’s vaccination record.

He said: “The Premier League will try everything to keep the league safe, to keep the situation around the players safe.

“We do that regularly and encourage players to behave in a disciplined way with regards to contacts.

“We also need to make sure we have most of the players vaccinated. I know we have a high record of vaccinated players in our club.

“The past two weeks shows that even if you have been vaccinated two or three times you can still be catching the virus, especially the new virus.

“At least you are being protected from severe symptoms, and most of our players who tested positive had very weak symptoms and didn’t suffer.”

Either way both sides can kick back and watch the Boxing Day matches unfold before playing their own match the following day.

When is Newcastle vs Manchester United?

  • The Premier League match is Monday, December 27.
