Former Manchester United defender Paul Parker believes the club has a real chance to win the UEFA Europa League this season.

Even though Manchester United have struggled with their form, Parker thinks they can still end the season with a trophy. He made this statement ahead of the semi-final clash between United and Spanish side Athletic Club.

Manchester United reached the semi-finals after beating French team Lyon in the quarter-finals last month. Now, they are preparing for the first leg of the semi-final, which will take place on Thursday night at 8 PM Nigerian time.

Speaking to iGaming, as quoted by Metro UK, Parker said, “When you look at it, United have been awful this season, but if they were to win the Europa League – there would be no argument. They’d have a bit of silverware.”

He added, “At this moment in time, you have to say United have a good chance of winning it.”

Manchester United will now look to take advantage in the first leg as they aim to reach the Europa League final.
