Man United plan high profile midweek friendlies to compensate for no European football [Independent]

Are Manchester United set to play some of the biggest teams in Europe after all this season?

The Independent has an interesting report in their Tuesday paper, in which the notion is tabled that Man United may be about the play a series of high profile midweek friendlies to compensate for no European football.

Unfortunately the report fails to specify which teams could be courted to play the Red Devils, and it’s unclear whether those opponents would be European based or, alternatively, from further afield.

Moreover, the Independent also detail how United could walk into big problems with UEFA over their plan to play these friendlies.
