Red Devils boosted by recent returns as fixtures begin to pile up

Erik ten Hag’s side drew 0-0 with Crystal Palace on Saturday evening and have welcomed back some key players as the fixtures pile up thick and fast.

Rasmus Hojlund made a late cameo at Selhurst Park, while Mason Mount was also in the squad after the pair recovered from muscle injuries.

The double boost affords Ten Hag options ahead of their Europa League opener against FC Twente on Wednesday before they meet Tottenham in the Premier League on Sunday.

With that in mind, here’s a look at the latest Manchester United injuries…

Luke Shaw

England defender Luke Shaw is yet to make an appearance for Manchester United this season but is thought to be progressing well on his return from a calf injury sustained over the course of the summer.

"He's progressing but not yet ready to be selected,” said Ten Hag last week.

“He is progressing well, of course we have a plan in our head when he can be ready but you're always dependent on how the progress will go and you can't think, you can't make a suggestion because there are so many factors, a plan can accelerate or slow down."

Potential return date: October 2024

Leny Yoro

Summer signing Leny Yoro injured his foot while away on pre-season duty with the club and has not yet made a competitive appearance.

Having undergone surgery, the former Lille defender is expected back in November.

Tyrell Malacia

Tyrell Malacia has not played for United for well over a year now but is expected to return imminently after a serious knee injury.

Potential return date: October 2024

Victor Lindelof

Victor Lindelof is another United defender not to have played this season but returned to training ahead of the Palace game following a toe injury.

With that in mind, it would not be a surprise to see the Sweden international back in action soon.

Potential return date: October 2024
