Man Utd fans praying three former players dash rivals Man City's Treble dreams

 Manchester United fans have put their hopes in three former Red Devils as they pray that Manchester City fall at the final hurdle in their Treble chase

Manchester United fans will have three names in their prayers in the build up to the Champions League final - in the form of some familiar figures.

Former Red Devils Romelu Lukaku, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Matteo Darmian are all set to play a part as Pep Guardiola's Manchester City look to topple Inter Milan to repeat United's heroic achievement of 1998/99.

City are huge favourites to get the job done after seeing off Arsenal in the Premier League and United in the FA Cup - but Simone Inzaghi's men are looking for a cup double after tasting Coppa Italia glory last month.

Lukaku has found his shooting boots in recent weeks with five goals across the final five Serie A games of the season after five in his previous 20 fixtures.

The Belgium international scored 42 goals across his two seasons with United between 2017 and 2019, leaving for Inter and rejoining on loan from Chelsea.

Mkhitaryan has played in all 12 Champions League fixtures so far this season and managed two goals, remaining a key creative figure from midfield under Simone Inzaghi.

The former Armenia international, 34, played 63 times for United after joining from Borussia Dortmund, leaving in a swap deal with Alexis Sanchez in 2018.
