Manchester United injuries and return dates including Luke Shaw and Rasmus Højlund latest

Manchester United head down to Southampton this weekend as they look to return to winning ways. They have lost two of their opening three Premier League fixtures.

The Red Devils were beaten 3-0 at home by Liverpool last time out and will be keen to bounce back. Here is a look at the latest injury news...

Leny Yoro

United’s summer signing suffered a foot injury over pre-season in a friendly against Arsenal in America. He made the switch to Old Trafford from Lille in Ligue 1.

Potential return: November

Rasmus Hojlund

The striker is yet to feature for the Red Devils so far this term and won’t be back for Southampton. He has been nursuing a hamstring issue.

Potential return: Mid to late September

Tyrell Malacia

United’s forgotten man has had rotten luck on the injury luck over recent times. He had knee surgery and has been out of action for over a year.

Potential return: October or November

Luke Shaw

The England international has been sidelined with a calf problem and won’t play against his former club Southampton. He isn’t too far away now though. Erik ten Hag has said: "Rasmus Hojlund and Luke Shaw, they are progressing very well, but are not ready for this game. Manuel Ugarte, I think we all have seen he played for Uruguay. He returned this afternoon, he was the only player who returned today.  All the other players returned yesterday, so he is available for this game."

Potential return: Mid to late September

Mason Mount

He is in the treatment room for a muscle injury and isn’t available at the moment. He joined his current from Chelsea last year.

Potential return: October

Victor Lindelof

The centre-back has a foot injury and missed out against Liverpool late last month. The Sweden international’s contract expires next year.

Potential return: Mid to late September

Ahead of their match against the Saints, United boss Ten Hag has said: “We will see where we are in May next year. It's very early in the season and it's about winning trophies, being as high as possible, of course, in the league. Do everything to win every game and then we will see in May where we are and then judge.

“It (outside noise) doesn't impact me. I know, in the process, where we are, what we have to do, where we are going. I have said before, we are still in a transition period. We have to integrate a lot of young players also in the team. We are still dealing with injuries, we have to bring the injuries back in the team. Before anyone thinks about excuses, no: we have to win every game. I know that, the team knows this and it doesn't matter who is available. We will focus on every game and, in every game, have the mindset we have to win.”

He added: “Of course, when you see the scores, no-one is happy. But also players have a very good sense of the process, of the quality of the process. I agree with him. Also, when you analyse the games - all the games - so far, we are in a good direction, but also, as normal in a transition period and in the period where you have to build a team, we have to improve. We have to step up.”
