Alexis Mac Allister‘s chances of starting against Man United may have lessened, with Argentina’s international fixture moved to a different US state and day. Mac Allister has struggled with his fitness since the backend of last season and it has compromised his start to the 2025/26 campaign.

He has joined up with the Argentina squad for the October break for two friendlies against Venezuela and Puerto Rico, though it is the latter that has changed his starting chances against United. There is a four-day gap between Argentina’s match and United’s visit, but the added factor of travel will place a big question mark on his chances in the XI, especially as Curtis Jones was not called up for England.
