Man Utd handed major boost as Harry Maguire and Lisandro Martinez return to training - but Leny Yoro surprisingly absent ahead of Europa League clash with Bodo/Glimt

United have been dealing with a defensive injury crisis, with Maguire, Martinez, Leny Yoro, Victor Lindelof and Luke Shaw all out injured for the 1-1 draw with Ipswich on Sunday - their first game under the Portuguese coach since he replaced Erik ten Hag at the helm.

United announced the positive news that England international Maguire and Argentina star Martinez are back with the rest of the team after spending time out injured. Shaw and Malacia were also in training, as were fellow injury worries Mason Mount and Kobbie Mainoo, but summer signing Yoro was not part of the group.

Maguire has been out since October with a muscle problem he picked up in the game against Aston Villa and is not ready to play, but Martinez is free to return to the squad, Amorim confirmed.

He said at a press conference on Wednesday on whether the pair can play: "Not Harry, Licha is ready. He didn't stop too much time, so I feel he is ready. The situation is different to Harry's."

Asked about Yoro's condition, he added: "He is training. We believe a lot of him and we are preparing the best way to start with Leny."

After earning a point in his maiden Premier League game in charge, Amorim will be looking for a first victory when United host Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League on Thursday.
