Man Utd News: When are Manchester United’s 9 injured players expected to return? Their return would bode well for the struggling side.

After Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s appointment as the permanent manager of the club, Manchester United were expected to soar once again. However, the club stumbled and somehow managed to finish 6th last season. Much more was expected in this campaign.

United invested in bringing new players to strengthen their side and while they have certainly helped the Red Devils, the overall performance from the club has been very disappointing. Constant injury woes haven’t helped their cause either.

Supporters will hope that the return of these players will help the club improve. Here is the latest news on the 9 players sidelined with injury and when can they be expected to return at the earliest.

Victor Lindelof

Swedish footballer Victor Lindelof is the latest addition to the injured list. The centre back is a key member of Soslkjaer’s side. However, he is out having played against Bournemouth despite having a sustained back problem against Chelsea 3 days prior.

Soslkjaer has since confirmed the Lindelof will miss the Europa League match against Partizan. However, he could heal up real fast and even feature for Manchester United this weekend for their Premier League match against Brighton.

When will he return?

November 10

Eric Bailly

Eric Bailly joined Manchester United in 2016 and while he started brilliantly for the Red Devils, his career has since been constantly plagued with injuries. The Ivorian’s campaign was put on hold before it even started after suffering a knee injury against Tottenham in China.

Bailly has since been making steady progress on his return from injury. The Centre back however may not make it to the playing XI immediately and may have to get back to full match fitness with the U-23’s. He may not take the field until next month.

When will he return?

December

Angel Gomes

Manchester United’s academy graduate Angel Gomes has not made an appearance for the Red Devils since October. He last played a Europa league match against AZ Alkmaar. The teenager picked up an injury while representing the U23’s. The nature of his problem however, has not been disclosed.

Fans of the club see him as a bright prospect for the future and so does Manchester United which is exactly why the club handed him a first team debut at 15 years, 11 months and 29 days. However, at the moment there is no word on when he will make his return.

When will he return?
