Manchester United’s defensive woes continue as Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof have been ruled out for at least a month due to injuries. Martinez, who had just returned from knee ligament damage, pulled his calf muscle during training, adding to the team’s injury woes. Meanwhile, Lindelof will miss the rest of April after suffering a hamstring injury.
With only Raphael Varane and Harry Maguire available as fit centre-backs, manager Erik ten Hag is facing serious setbacks as the team prepares for upcoming matches against Chelsea and Liverpool. The absence of Martinez and Lindelof leaves a significant gap in the defense, putting pressure on Varane and Maguire to step up in their absence.
This season has been plagued with injuries for Manchester United, with key players missing crucial matches due to various ailments. The loss of Martinez and Lindelof further adds to the team’s struggles, as they try to secure a top-four finish in the Premier League.
Fans will be anxiously watching to see how Varane and Maguire perform in the upcoming matches, as they face tough opponents without two key defenders. The pressure is on for manager Erik ten Hag to find a way to overcome these setbacks and lead Manchester United to victory in the final stretch of the season.
