According to reports, Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has opened an investigation to find out which player is disclosing team news.

Man United secured a vital victory against their noisy neighbours Manchester City on Sunday, defeating their rivals 2-1 in the Manchester derby.

The visitors handed Pep Guardiola his eighth defeat of the season and added more pressure on the Spanish coach.

However, before the important win, there was a leak in the team news before the official list was released.

Prior to their derby victory over rivals Man City on Saturday, the Red Devils team news was leaked, with the information claiming that Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford were reportedly left out of the team.

Ruben Amorim's official team sheet, which did not include either of the United forwards, was made public before kickoff, confirming that information.

The Sun claims that Amorim has now questioned Garnacho and Amad Diallo about their involvement in the leaks.

Club sources explained that Garnacho's exclusion had nothing to do with allegations that his brother had leaked squads, according to a Manchester Evening News report.

According to a different Metro report, Garnacho's brother refuted claims on social media that he was the source of leaks before last week's games.

Speaking after the game, Amorim said, “I know that story. I don't know, I think it's impossible to fix nowadays because you have a lot of people in the club, the players talk with agents.

“I don't know, you can talk with friends, so it's hard to know. It's not a good thing but let's move on and go to the next one and see if they find the next starting XI.”
