Manchester United's preparation for the upcoming clash against Arsenal has received a boost with the return of Marcus Rashford and Lisandro Martinez to training.
The Premier League club made the announcement via a statement on their official website, confirming the inclusion of the two players in first-team training sessions at Carrington.
"Lisandro Martinez and Marcus Rashford have returned to first-team training at Carrington," stated Manchester United, signaling the reintegration of the duo into the squad ahead of the crucial fixture.
Argentine defender Lisandro Martinez, who had been sidelined due to injury, has resumed full training and is reportedly without any complications on the pitch. His availability for the upcoming match against Arsenal suggests a potential boost to the defensive lineup for Manchester United.
Similarly, Marcus Rashford, who had been recovering from an injury sustained during the FA Cup semi-final against Coventry City, has returned to first-team training. With his rehabilitation progressing positively, Rashford is in contention to be included in the squad for the upcoming fixture, providing a significant attacking option for the team.
The statement further elaborated on the players' return to training, stating, "Our exclusive images from the club’s training base depict the Argentina international and homegrown forward actively participating in sessions with the main group after their respective spells on the sidelines."
Martinez had been sidelined since the 1-1 draw against Brentford, where he suffered a calf strain, marking his absence from the team's defensive lineup. However, his return to full training indicates a potential return to action, bolstering Manchester United's defensive options.
Despite the positive news regarding Martinez and Rashford, Manchester United still faces absences in their squad, with players like Luke Shaw and Raphael Varane yet to return to training.
Additionally, Bruno Fernandes was notably absent from the recent training session, highlighting the ongoing challenges faced by the team in maintaining a fully fit squad.
