Cristiano Ronaldo, Edinson Cavani and Raphael Varane available for Manchester United's Premier League clash with Tottenham after missing Manchester derby last weekend; watch Man Utd vs Spurs live on Sky Sports Premier League from 5pm on Saturday Night Football; kick-off 5.30pm

Cristiano Ronaldo is available for Manchester United's crucial Premier League clash with Tottenham on Saturday, live on Sky Sports, but Ralf Rangnick admits he does not know if the forward is happy at Old Trafford.

Ronaldo missed last weekend's chastening 4-1 derby loss to Manchester City due to injury but is set to return for the visit of top-four rivals Spurs.

"He resumed training yesterday. He trained the whole training session and I expect him to be in training today as well," United interim manager Rangnick said.

"He trained well so I would've thought he's available for tomorrow."

Last weekend, Rangnick said Ronaldo missed Sunday's Manchester derby due to a hip injury, but former United captain and Sky Sports pundit Roy Keane thought something about his absence "didn't add up".

It was just the second Premier League game Ronaldo, who has scored just one goal in his last 10 appearances, has missed since rejoining United this season.

The 37-year-old's absence also appeared to be questioned by his sister, Katia Aveiro, after she liked an Instagram post claiming he was not injured but instead dropped by Rangnick.

Amid fresh reports this week about Ronaldo's happiness, Rangnick said: "Well, I don't know, I haven't asked him if he's happy at Manchester and at this club.

"For me, it's important that he's fit again and that he resumed training yesterday.

"We will see with which formation and with which line-up we are going to play the game tomorrow."

Asked to clarify whether he and the club were aware of Ronaldo reportedly going to Portugal last weekend instead of watching his team-mates at the Etihad, Rangnick said: "No, because it doesn't make sense to look back on what was happening in the last six or seven days.

"For me, it's important what is happening today and tomorrow. For me, it doesn't make sense at all to go through all this again."
