MARTIAL IN LINE FOR MAN UTD RETURN 🆚 LIVERPOOL
Anthony Martial is expected to return to first-team training this week and has a chance of playing a part in Manchester United’s match against rivals Liverpool.
The France striker has been out since August with a thigh injury and United have struggled to score goals in his absence, registering just five in an eight-game run of two wins, four draws and two defeats.
But he could hand Ole Gunnar Solskjaer a major boost for the visit of the Premier League leaders, as one of a number of players the Norwegian hopes to see a return from recent injuries at Old Trafford.
Paul Pogba, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Victor Lindelof and Luke Shaw are all set to be in contention while Jesse Lingard and Mason Greenwood could also feature.
Just as with Martial, United have been without Shaw, the England left-back, since the August home defeat against Crystal Palace. The former Southampton defender suffered a hamstring problem.
