Erik ten Hag revealed there are “illnesses” in the squad, as he provided an extensive injury update ahead of his side’s clash with West Ham.
The Red Devils are grappling with fresh injury concerns, as they gear up to face West Ham in the Premier League.
The Dutch tactician informed about a certain illness which has forced certain players to run a race against time to get fit before the clash at London Stadium on Saturday.
Speaking to reporters, Ten Hag said: “We have some doubts, we had some illnesses during the week.
“So, we have to see who is available for tomorrow”.
When asked specifically about the injury status of Casemiro & Lisandro Martinez, Ten Hag added:
“They [Martinez and Casemiro] are not available before Christmas.
“Mid-January, we expect them back.
“Mason Mount is similar, into January. Harry Maguire, I expect him early on [in the new year].
“Victor Lindelof is not available.
“He has done surgery so he will be out for a couple of weeks”.
Despite the setbacks, Bruno Fernandes returns to contention after serving a suspension, providing a boost to the midfield.
