Doyle was also voted United’s player of the month for March and is expected to make his 31st appearance of the campaign when United host Wigan Athletic at Bramall Lane in the first of two crucial matches over the Easter period, as they look to evade the clutches of Boro and Luton Town and seal automatic promotion to the Premier League.

United travel to champions-elect Burnley on Easter Monday. “I knew Tommy and Macca would enjoy it,” boss Paul Heckingbottom said, referring to Doyle and his City teammate, and fellow Lane loanee, James McAtee. “Because they ‘get it’ here.”
