Manchester United bolstered by Lisandro Martinez return
Erik Ten Hag, the manager of Manchester United, has officially announced the availability of Lisandro Martinez ahead of their crucial Premier League encounter against Brentford.
Martinez, the Argentine international, has been sidelined due to injury in recent weeks, leaving United with limited options in defense.
Martinez had suffered ligament damage in his right knee, which initially ruled him out for a minimum of eight weeks. This setback occurred during Manchester United's triumphant 3-0 victory over West Ham on February 4th.
In a press conference preceding the forthcoming clash with Brentford, Erik ten Hag stated, "Lisandro MartÃnez could be part of the squad against Brentford," indicating the player's potential return to action.
Meanwhile, the United coach addressed the status of another key player, Luke Shaw, hinting at the possibility of his involvement in the remaining fixtures of the season.
Shaw, plagued by inconsistency due to recurrent injuries, faces another spell on the sidelines. The left-back, who sustained a hamstring injury during the weekend victory over Luton Town, is expected to be absent for a significant period.
Expressing optimism regarding Shaw's recovery, Erik ten Hag remarked, "I expect Luke Shaw to play again for us this season, we’re confident."
The return of Lisandro Martinez provides a much-needed boost to Manchester United's defensive options, while the club remains hopeful for Luke Shaw's swift recuperation, aiming to strengthen their squad for the challenges ahead.
