After Casemiro’s injury scare, Manchester United has learned good news.
FEATURED VIDEO
Raphael Varane and Sergio Reguilon may be deemed healthy in time to provide Erik ten Hag with much-needed defensive reinforcements for the weekend trip to Sheffield United.
Unlike Lisandro Martinez, who won’t play again this year, Luke Shaw is still a ways off from making a comeback.
Kobbie Mainoo had been on the verge of making a comeback but is now reportedly having trouble.
Here is the most recent information on Man Utd injuries and expected return dates.
Casemiro
After leaving the field 11 minutes into Brazil’s stalemate with Venezuela due to an ankle injury, Casemiro is questionable for the Sheffield United game.
Fernando Diniz, the manager of Brazil, told the media that the player “asked to come off due to a blow to his ankle.”
However, there is hope that Casemiro’s injury has already been resolved because he was seen working out again prior to Tuesday night’s match against Uruguay in Montevideo.
Return date conceivable: October 21 against Sheffield United.
Left-back Luke Shaw
Shaw last appeared for United on August 19, and he was then sidelined for about ten weeks after being found to have a leg muscle ailment.
Although the England international is yet to return to training, Ten Hag has refused to give a timetable for his recovery from injury.
November 11 at Luton or November 26 against Everton are two possible return dates.
Raphael Varane
Varane should be available for United this weekend after sitting out Brentford’s victory owing to a “minor” problem.
Ten Hag explained Varane’s absence by saying, “He couldn’t make the game, he had a minor issue.” “If it had been two or three days later, he could have made it, but now it was too short.”
Return date might be against Sheffield United on October 21.
Lisandro Martinez
After having a second operation on his foot, Martinez played for the last time in 2023.
The Argentine defender experienced pain in September’s matches against Brighton and Bayern Munich following surgery on a broken metatarsal in the spring, and it was later determined that he would miss another three months of action.
Possible date of return: January 2024
Sergio Reguilon
After suffering a hamstring injury in late September, Reguilon might be available for United this weekend to replace the vacant left-back position.
He was previously expected to return before the international break, but with another two weeks to rest, he may be close to being fit.
Return date might be against Sheffield United on October 21.
Wan-Bissaka Aaron
Following a hamstring injury sustained against Brighton, Wan-Bissaka was informed by United that “several weeks” of recovery time were anticipated.
His reported recuperation timetable of two months suggests a return by mid-November.
Possibly returning on November 26 against Everton
