The Red Devils were preparing to face Bournemouth for a do-or-die battle where they needed to win while hoping that their rivals Man City would lose to Swansea, hence propelling LVG’s side to next season’s Champions League action.
In his tweet, renowned journalist Andy Mitten claimed that the suspected package could actually be a bomb planted at the stadium.
