In anticipation of the upcoming preseason, Manchester United supporters have been closely monitoring the team’s injury list.
Many members of the first team have been sidelined at some point this season due to Manchester United’s injury woes.
Rasmus Hojlund, Mason Mount, Luke Shaw, and Leny Yoro were all sidelined by injury when United began the Premier League season.
However, Lisandro Martinez missed the remainder of the season due to an ACL tear in February, which was the first long-term injury of the year.
Fans were terrified when the Argentine centre-back was carried off during the match against Crystal Palace, and their suspicions were validated a few days later.
The centre-back has been missing from the match-day squads since without any significant updates on his return.
However, CentreDevils have received information regarding the Argentine’s return to the Manchester United squad.

CentreDevils can exclusively reveal that that Lisandro Martinez is making “good” recovery.
We can reveal that the defender is currently in the process of doing strength and rehabilitation work and has focused a lot on upper-body work.
Martinez has been working “super” hard since the exact time he picked up the injury.
According to the Manchester Evening News, he is unlikely to play in the preseason friendlies in July, but he might return to the pitch in early August.
If everything goes according to plan, he might return to the matchday squad by September, but even then, he won’t be a lock to start.
Manchester United young starlets Leny Yoro and Ayden Heaven have really made a name for themselves over the last few months since Martinez’s injury.
Prior to his injury, he had inconsistent play, and when defensive alternatives are finally piled, Amorim won’t make sentimental choices.
Martinez is capable of taking on a task, though. Fans will also be hoping that he will perform at his best now that there is actual competition.
