Manchester United could be without Bruno Fernandes for Monday’s Premier League clash with Crystal Palace.
Erik ten Hag has confirmed the club captain is a doubt due to an issue he picked up in the draw against Burnley.
There are question marks over seven first-team players for the trip to Selhurst Park as United battle a swathe of injuries, although Jonny Evans has returned to training and Scott McTominay is due back over the weekend.
“Scott didn’t train so far this week but I expect him back in training on Saturday,” Ten Hag told reporters on Thursday.
“We have to see if he’s 100 per cent available or for a part of the game.
“After the [Burnley] game, we had an issue with Bruno. He is a doubt for Monday. We all know Bruno, never rule him out for any game, he will do his best to be available.
“Jonny Evans returned today for team training. Tomorrow we are off and then we have two days until the game. [Anthony] Martial was partly in team training.”
Marcus Rashford is a major doubt to return after Ten Hag confirmed he had make little progress on recovering from an injury he suffered in the FA Cup semi-final against Coventry.
Luke Shaw and Lisandro Martinez have returned to training but United are yet to confirm their availability to play.
