Manchester United have suffered another injury blow with Lisandro Martinez out of action for at least a month.
Manchester United have suffered another injury blow as Lisandro Martinez will be out of action for at least a month. Martinez returned to action for the first time since February during Manchester United's 1-1 draw with Brentford on Saturday but has picked up a calf strain in training. Martinez has only featured 11 times for Man United in an injury-hit second season at the club.
It leaves Erik ten Hag with only Harry Maguire and Rafael Varane as centre-back options ahead of matches against Chelsea and Liverpool, which is live on Sky Sports on Sunday. Varane was also withdrawn at half-time against Brentford but Ten Hag said after the match that the move was precautionary. It is unclear whether Jonny Evans, who did not play for Northern Ireland during the international break and was not part of the squad for the Brentford game, will be available for selection.
