Manchester United are set to receive a boost with three key players returning from injury ahead of their upcoming match against Crystal Palace. The Red Devils will face the Eagles at Selhurst Park this Saturday, with Oliver Glasner’s side still chasing their first Premier League victory of the season.
United have had a shaky start to the season, earning just six points from their first four games. However, a convincing win over Southampton and a dominant 7-0 victory over Barnsley in the Carabao Cup have lifted team morale.
To keep the positive momentum going, United will be relying on the return of Victor Lindelof, Rasmus Hojlund, and Mason Mount from injury. While Lindelof is not expected to play just yet, Hojlund and Mount could make a comeback. Manager Erik ten Hag expressed his delight at having the trio back in training, stating, “It’s very good news. They are back on the pitch, back in team training. We have to decide if they are fit enough to start, but I’m very happy they are back with the squad.”
Ten Hag also acknowledged the importance of managing player workload and avoiding injuries in a demanding season. Despite the challenges, he remains optimistic about integrating the returning players carefully to ensure their fitness and performance on the pitch.
