Manchester United injury news and return dates as three stars set for comeback - gallery

Manchester United will finish their pre-season schedule when they host Fiorentina at Old Trafford on Saturday lunchtime. Ruben Amorim's side are currently unbeaten across their four previous summer friendly fixtures and will hope for another positive performance ahead of the season opener against Arsenal.

The United head coach is likely to use the Fiorentina match as a dress rehearsal for the new league campaign and could hand out home debuts to both Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo. It could also be the last time some players feature at Old Trafford, with the deal for Benjamin Sesko expected to spell the end for Rasmus Hojlund at the club.

David de Gea will make his Manchester return this weekend, and there could also be a few comebacks in the United side as well. Amorim was without four stars during the US tour, but might have some of them available for their final friendly this weekend. Here is all the latest injury news and possible return dates for the match.

Mazraoui did not feature during the US tour but returned to training last week and should be in contention to play this weekend.

Onana aimed to be fit for the start of the new Premier League season and could get a runout against Fiorentina if he is fit enough. It doesn't make sense to risk him, but it would be wise for him to play before the Arsenal match.
