In a promising turn of events for Manchester United, Lisandro Martinez has rejoined full training with the Argentine national team after an injury scare during their recent match against Arsenal.
Martinez, one of United’s key defenders, started the game at the Emirates Stadium but was substituted in the 67th minute due to discomfort in his foot. This substitution raised concerns among fans, given the mounting injury crisis at Old Trafford.
After the match, manager Erik ten Hag provided some insight, stating, “Licha [Martinez] said he had a problem on his foot. But I’m not sure if it’s an injury. We have to wait, we have to see, we have to make the diagnosis.”
Fortunately, Martinez’s fearsome performance on the pitch was not met with a prolonged injury setback. He has since joined the Argentine national team for international duty, participating in full training sessions, indicating his fitness.
With Martinez back in contention, Manchester United can breathe a sigh of relief as they prepare to face Brighton in their next fixture. However, the injury woes continue for the team, with Raphael Varane sidelined due to injury, posing a significant challenge for United’s defense.
