David De Gea misses Man Utd's clash vs Crystal Palace due to 'personal reasons'

David De Gea has missed Manchester United’s Premier League clash with Crystal Palace on Wednesday evening due to personal reasons.

The Spain international was a surprise omission from United’s matchday squad but his absence means that Dean Henderson makes only his third start in the Premier League this season.

Anthony Martial was also missing from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side due to a knee injury he suffered in training on Monday.

‘David [De Gea], that’s personal reasons,’ Solskjaer told MUTV before the game.

‘Anthony [Martial] got a knock in training on Monday, on his knee, so not ready for this. Hopefully ready for the weekend but we’re not sure yet.’

MAN UTD TEAM VS CRYSTAL PALACE

MAN UTD XI: Henderson; Wan-Bissaka, Bailly, Maguire, Shaw; Matic, Fred; Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford; Cavani.

SUBS: Grant, Lindelof, Telles, Tuanzebe, Williams, Amad, James, McTominay, Shoretire.
