After suffering a loss to Crystal Palace over the course of the weekend, Manchester United will face Galatasaray on Tuesday evening with the weight of the world once again resting on their shoulders.
After being thrashed by the hosts in the previous encounter, United was able to defeat the hosts thanks to a magnificent goal scored by Joachim Andersen midway through the first half. Throughout the entirety of the match, the Red Devils made numerous attempts to bring the score even, but they were eventually unsuccessful.
A lack of defensive options is a key concern for Erik ten Hag as they prepare for their return to Champions League action in the middle of the week. Fans will be hoping for some encouraging news on the injury front before the match. In preparation for the match that will take place at Old Trafford, MEN’s Sport took a look at the most recent information coming out of the Carrington treatment room.
Mr. Luke Shaw
Unknown Level of Injury
What the Ten Hags had to say about the matter was as follows: “We are unable to do that [set a specific time limit on repayment].” These days, it’s a private concern, therefore they won’t be available for a little while. My guess is that Luke Shaw will end up being taller.
The possibility of a return date in October or November
This is Sergio Reguilon.
Unknown Level of Injury
What is known to us:
After a poor performance against Burnley while being sick, the Tottenham left back, who was on loan to United, did not play in their Carabao Cup match against Palace. According to a statement that was distributed by the club on Friday, he will be unable to play in the second encounter against Roy Hodgson’s team because of a “minor injury.”
It’s possible that he’ll play again on October 3 against Galatasaray.
This is Kobbie Mainoo.
Trauma to the Ankle
According to the information that we have, the midfielder postponed his personal training program at Carrington so that he could heal from an injury sustained during the pre-season tour. On Saturday, Mainoo was seen hanging out and having a good time with Jadon Sancho.
The possibility of a comeback date in October
The name is Lisandro Martinez.
Trauma to the Foot
What the Ten Hags had to say about the matter was, “This is truly distressing news. He was forced to go through the same procedure, and I feel terrible for him because of it. The group won’t be the same without him. You are aware that we have a higher injury rate, and because of this, we must always find a method to deal with it as a team. As a club, we are required to address the issue of injuries. It’s imperative that he’s tough. I have no doubt that he will put up a fight. He has a lot of personality. There is still a long way to go in the season, and he will get back into shape. We have to be good at our jobs and put ourselves in the ideal position for him to be able to make contributions and improve things when he gets back.
The possibility of a comeback date in December
The name is Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
Hamstring strain (injury)
What we know is that the fullback suffered a hamstring injury in the dying minutes of United’s 3-1 loss at home to Brighton & Hove Albion, and that ailment will likely keep him out of action for a good portion of the coming weeks.
