Man Utd injury update: Martinez, Mount, Amrabat and others latest return dates
After the international break, Manchester United desperately needs a change for the better as players like Lisandro Martinez, Sofyan Amrabat, Lindelof, and Mason Mount are all injured.
They have had a rough start to the season, losing to both Tottenham and Arsenal, and Erik ten Hag’s team has looked ineffective even while winning games against Wolves and Nottingham Forest.
Following the break, United hosts Brighton before visiting Bayern Munich in the Champions League, both challenging matches for a manager under pressure.
In light of this, Ten Hag could use the return of some injured players back into the first-team.
Injury update on Lisandro Martinez and Sofyan Amrabat
The Argentine’s removal against Arsenal due to a foot issue caused anxiety since he is crucial to how United builds up from the back.
Although the United defender did not participate on international duty, Argentine manager Lionel Scaloni said that Martinez was healthy despite being called up.
The potential comeback date for Licha could be on September 16 against Brighton, but it can be changed if the team management finds he is unfit.
“As you are aware, Licha had a problem with his feet. He was in agony during Arsenal’s last game against Manchester United and left the field (was substituted) out of caution. He is healthy after investigations were conducted.”
Said Lionel Scaloni
According to the Standard Uk, on the day of signing, the absence of Sofyan Amrabat from the Moroccan team for their matches against Liberia and Burkina Faso raised concerns that the midfielder, who was on loan from Fiorentina, was injured.
Walid Regragui, the manager of Atlas Lions, maintained that it was merely a precaution, giving fans optimism that Amrabat will debut on Saturday.
The potential comeback date for Amrabat can be September 16 against Brighton.
Injury update on Victor Lindelof and Mason Mount
Lindelof was the second defender to leave the game against Arsenal, although he did so due to sickness rather than an injury.
He participated for Sweden over the break, so it is virtually inevitable that he will be available for the Brighton game.
The potential comeback date for Victor Lindelof could be September 16 against Brighton.
Meanwhile, Mount has struggled to find his stride since joining United, and a hamstring injury has kept him out of the last two matches.
However, the England international will probably play following the international break. A possible comeback date for Mason Mount could be September 20 against Bayern Munich.
Injury update on Kobbie Mainoo, Raphael Varane and Luke Shaw
After making an impression during the pre-season, Kobbie Mainoo’s summer was wrecked by an ankle injury sustained during a friendly match versus Real Madrid.
But by the end of the month, Mainoo should be back in action. The possible date of the return for Kobbie Maino could be the last days of September 2023.
Varane left the game with an injury in the victory over Forest and was ruled out of the defeat to Arsenal due to an undisclosed fitness issue.
According to the club, the Frenchman will be out for “a few weeks” of activity. The possible date of the return for Raphael Varane can be September 2023.
Shaw, a key member of Ten Hag’s team, will be out for a few weeks due to a muscular issue, which is why Sergio Reguilon was brought in on loan.
Potentially, Luke Shaw will join the squad in October 2023.
