Lukaku may not play against Manchester United


Romelu Lukaku may not play against Manchester City  after he was not named in the squad for Wednesday's trip to Juventus.The 25-year-old Belgian was dropped to the bench for the match against Everton two weeks ago and then missed the win at Bournemouth because of an injury.
"He's injured for tomorrow, I'm not sure for Sunday," United manager Jose Mourinho said.
Lukaku has only scored four goals in 14 matches for United this season.
The last of those came in the 2-1 win at Watford on 15 September.

Following the previous Champions League game against Juventus, two weeks ago, Mourinho said that the Belgian had been lacking in confidence but that "the goals will arrive". He was relegated to the bench for the following match, against the Toffees.

Meanwhile, right-back Antonio Valencia has returned to the squad for Wednesday's encounter having not played since the start of October following mouth surgery.

Juventus forward Mario Mandzukic is fit again after an ankle problem ruled him out of the fixture against Cagliari at the weekend.

Midfielders Douglas Costa and Emre Can, winger Federico Bernardeschi and forward Moise Kean are not available.

Coach Massimiliano Allegri said he might select Juan Cuadrado, Paulo Dybala and former United player Cristiano Ronaldo as a three-pronged attack.

Juventus are top of Champions League Group H with three wins from three. They also lead Serie A by six points after a record-breaking start to the campaign, winning their first 10 matches in all competitions.

"We're doing well at the moment, but you don't win any silverware at this stage of the season," former AC Milan coach Allegri said.

"Tomorrow [Wednesday] we have the chance to reach our first target for the season by qualifying for the next round of the Champions League, then we'll be able to focus on Serie A. It's important to try and get to March in very good shape."L
