Manchester United will face Tottenham Hotspur in the all-English Europa League final on Wednesday night in Bilbao. 

The Red Devils have had a wretched season, but they can salvage pride if they win the Europa League under Ruben Amorim.

The Portuguese boss has shown his class by paying the money for the club stuff to bring family members to the game, a privilege that was denied by one of the world’s richest clubs.

Interestingly, Man Utd players reportedly fitted in £1,000 Paul Smith suits on Monday ahead of their flight to Spain.

However, not all of United’s players will be cheered on by their partners.

According to a report from The Express, Victor Lindelof’s wife, Maja, won’t be among the WAGS in the 50,000 seater stadium in Bilbao.

The 31-year-old confirmed on Instagram that she won’t be joining her husband, as she is pregnant. The couple’s third child is due imminently.

She posted a baby-bump photo on Instagram story with the caption – “This week’s plan – eat chocolate and sleep.”

The pair married in May 2018 in Sweden and they have two sons. Ted Louie and Francis are aged six and three years, respectively.

The 30-year-old defender hasn’t featured heavily this season. He has managed only 11 starts in all competitions for the Red Devils.

United were confined to their worst-ever Premier League season, but the mood around the club will change dramatically if they win the competition tonight.
