Sesko is likely to be fit in time for the match against Leeds. |
MU entered the mid-season break before returning to the Premier League with a match against Leeds in round 32. The sparse fixture schedule, due to not participating in European competitions and an early exit from the domestic cup, gave manager Michael Carrick more time to patch up a squad depleted by injuries.
There's good news from the attack as Benjamin Sesko is likely to return. The Slovenian striker voluntarily withdrew from the national team's training camp to fully address his fitness issues and is currently in excellent form with 8 goals in his last 11 matches.
Further back, Lisandro Martinez is also close to making his return after missing five consecutive matches. The return of the Argentinian center-back is especially necessary given Harry Maguire's suspension and the shortage of personnel in the defense.
Conversely, Matthijs de Ligt's situation remains worrying. The Dutch defender has been sidelined for nearly four months due to a back injury and has yet to return to training with the first team. The possibility of him missing the rest of the season is entirely plausible.
Patrick Dorgu's hamstring injury will sideline the young talent for an extended period. While no specific timeframe has been given, the coaching staff hopes he can recover in time for this crucial phase. Additionally, the fitness of defender Noussair Mazraoui needs further monitoring.
Manchester United faces immense pressure in the race for the top four. The match against Leeds at Old Trafford is a test of character for Carrick's team. The return of key players offers hope, but the gaps in the defense remain a major question mark over the Red Devils' ambitions.
