With Manchester United facing a crucial part of the season, players are working hard to return to the field.
Recent suspensions and injuries have disrupted Michael Carrick’s squad, leading to necessary adjustments.
As the team prepares for the upcoming matches, the focus is on recovery, especially with a 24-day gap between games.
One player who has been sidelined is Lisandro Martinez.
Martinez has not played since the draw against West Ham earlier last month and has missed five matches.
He is expected to join the squad for a training camp in Dublin as he aims to regain fitness before the match against Leeds United.
Here’s the latest on his recovery and potential return.
Reports indicate that Lisandro Martinez is now back in individual training on the grass and is making significant progress.
The Argentine defender has been focusing on strength and conditioning recently, but he is now stepping up his recovery efforts.
Michael Carrick will be keen to have the center-back back, especially with Harry Maguire suspended from the last game.
With Matthijs de Ligt also out due to a back injury, Martinez’s return is crucial for defensive depth.
Since joining from Ajax, Martinez has faced multiple injury challenges, though he plays a vital role when healthy.
He suffered a serious metatarsal fracture in his debut season, which kept him out for a long time, along with knee ligament issues and consistent muscular injuries.
A fit Martinez significantly impacts United’s gameplay.
