Man United injury update as of today, ahead of their April 13 clash with Leeds:
Players Returning Soon
Lisandro Martínez:- The Argentine defender is now back in full training with the squad during United’s Dublin training camp, having missed the last five games with a calf injury. He’s expected to be available vs Leeds.
Bryan Mbeumo:- The forward picked up a minor injury in the 2-2 draw at Bournemouth but is expected to be fit for the Leeds game. He was left out of Cameroon’s squad as a precaution, which suggests the issue isn’t serious.
Benjamin Sesko:- Didn’t join up with Slovenia during the international break to recover from a niggle. Expected to be fully fit for Leeds.
Patrick Dorgu:- The Danish winger has been out since January with a hamstring injury but is now training individually on the pitches at Carrington. He’ll miss the Leeds game but could potentially return for the Brentford fixture on April 27 or the Liverpool clash on May 3.
Players Still Out
Matthijs de Ligt:- The Dutch CB has been sidelined for four months with a lower back injury sustained against Crystal Palace. Carrick described the situation candidly, saying the back issue is proving difficult.
Harry Maguire:- Suspended for the Leeds game after his red card in the Bournemouth draw.
Players To Watch For
Noussair Mazraoui:- Missed the Bournemouth game through illness but his involvement with Morocco during the break suggests it wasn’t serious. Should be available.
Big boost for Carrick with Martínez, Mbeumo, and Sesko all likely returning — but losing Maguire to suspension and de Ligt long-term hurts the backline at a crucial stage of the Champions League qualification race.
