Alexis Sanchez has been named in Manchester United's Champions League squad.
The Chilean is eligible for the competition after only playing the Europa League for Arsenal this season.
He takes Henrikh Mkhitaryan's place in the European squad list for the remainder of the campaign, reports the Manchester Evening News.
Axel Tuanzebe has been retained by United despite leaving on loan to join Aston Villa last week. Tuanzebe made just three appearances this season, including a cameo in the final group stage fixture against CSKA Moscow.
Demetri Mitchell has also stayed on the list even though he headed on loan to Hearts in the January transfer window.

Mitchell, 21, failed to make the bench for the first-team in the first half of the season, having made his debut against Crystal Palace in United's final Premier League fixture of last term.
United have omitted James Wilson from their squad list after he moved to Sheffield United on loan until the end of the campaign. Wilson, 22, was a surprising inclusion in the initial squad list in September, having not played for the first-team since their League Cup fourth round defeat to Middlesbrough in October 2015.

Wilson received the number 29 shirt earlier this term but did not make a single matchday squad and was a regular in the Under-23s.
United have kept Zlatan Ibrahimovic in their 29-man list, despite the possibility of him moving to the LA Galaxy ahead of the start of the MLS season next month.
Jose Mourinho's side travel to Sevilla for their round-of-16 Champions League first leg on February 21.
