Manchester United face anxious wait over player absences

Manchester United are left uncertain over the involvement of Kobbie Mainoo and Luke Shaw for the upcoming fixtures, as both players missed training ahead of Tuesday’s match, reports BritPanorama.

This absence raises concerns for manager Michael Carrick, particularly regarding the left side of his defence, an area already strained by injuries.

Adding to the woes, Patrick Dorgu is unavailable after suffering an injury while representing Denmark during the international break.

Noussair Mazraoui, another option to cover the position, also remains sidelined and did not participate in Monday’s training session.

As United navigates this challenging period, the depth of their squad and strategic decisions will play a crucial role in maintaining their competitive edge.
