Manchester United Injury Update: Sesko and Maguire Out, Mainoo Likely to Return for Everton Clash
Manchester United are gearing up to face Everton at Old Trafford after the November international break. The team is looking to bounce back from recent draws against Nottingham Forest and Tottenham Hotspur. Despite some injury concerns in the squad, United is on a five-game unbeaten streak and is starting to find their form under manager Ruben Amorim.
Star striker Benjamin Sesko is set to miss some time due to a knee injury sustained in the match against Spurs. Amorim confirmed that Sesko will be out for a few weeks but the injury is not too serious. This means he will likely miss the upcoming game against Everton but could return in time for the festive fixtures in December.
Harry Maguire suffered a hamstring injury in the last game against Tottenham and will not be ready to face Everton. Amorim mentioned that Maguire is still not fit to play, indicating that he needs more time to recover. The defender's return date is expected to be in December.
Midfielder Kobbie Mainoo missed the Tottenham game due to a minor knock but is likely to be available for the Everton match. Despite missing training on Friday, Amorim expressed optimism about Mainoo's availability for the upcoming game. Mainoo is expected to return to action against Everton on November 24.
Lisandro Martinez is nearing a full return after recovering from an ACL injury he suffered in February. The defender rejoined full training before the international break but was not rushed back into action by Amorim. Martinez is getting closer to playing again, and there is a possibility that he could feature in the game against Everton on November 24.
