Wayne Rooney to miss return to Everton through suspension

Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney will be suspended for Sunday's Premier League match at his former club Everton.

The 31-year-old picked up his fifth booking of the season in the midweek EFL Cup win over West Ham, but Paul Pogba and Marouane Fellaini are in contention after serving bans of their own.

Luke Shaw is a doubt with an unspecified injury that forced him off on Wednesday, while Eric Bailly (knee) and Chris Smalling (toe) remain absent for the trip to Goodison Park.

Provisional squad: De Gea, Romero, Blind, Jones, Darmian, Fosu-Mensah, Rojo, Shaw, Valencia, Carrick, Herrera, Mkhitaryan, Fellaini, Pogba, Lingard, Mata, Schneiderlin, Schweinsteiger, Young, Depay, Martial, Rashford, Ibrahimovic
