Captain Bruno Fernandes will also not feature in the matchday squad due to a one-match suspension for accumulating his fifth yellow card against Bournemouth.
‘’Harry [Maguire], he will not be available for the coming games,” said Ten Hag at his press conference. “But we don’t think it is for the long term. Luke Shaw, he trained this morning. So we think he is available for Sunday.
“Marcus Rashford. He will [be back, but] Martial not.’‘
Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia, Casemiro, Mason Mount and Christian Eriksen look certain to remain out.
