Manchester United is receiving a significant injury boost as key players return to training ahead of their crucial Champions League clash against Bayern Munich. After a challenging period with multiple injuries, this news comes as a relief for manager Erik ten Hag.
Star defender Raphael Varane, who had missed the last two matches due to injury, is back in contention for the Bayern Munich game. His presence adds depth and experience to the United defense.
Manchester United have less injuries to worry about
Midfielder Mason Mount, who suffered a hamstring injury and missed recent games, is also set to make his return. His creativity and versatility will be valuable for the team.
Midfield duo Sofyan Amrabat and Kobbie Mainoo, who were dealing with injuries, are training separately as they near full fitness. Amrabat, a new signing from Fiorentina, has been unable to debut due to a back issue, while Mainoo suffered an ankle injury during preseason.
The return of these key players reduces the strain on the squad and provides more options for Erik ten Hag, who had faced a long list of injuries at one point.
Raphael Varane was spotted going through the gears
On the Bayern Munich side, midfielder Joshua Kimmich, who was subbed off during their recent Bundesliga match, is seen training, potentially making him available for the game. Additionally, Kingsley Coman and Raphael Guerreiro are returning from injuries, bolstering Bayern’s squad.
Bayern Munich will rely on star striker Harry Kane, who has been in excellent form since his transfer. Kane emphasizes that he chose Bayern over other clubs, including Manchester United, during the summer transfer window.
“I know there were some talks between a few clubs in the background.
There weren’t really too many other discussions once Bayern came in. Manchester United are a great club, really big club, but I decided to come here.”
Mason Mount has also returned to training
Manchester United’s injury-hit squad is getting a much-needed boost with the return of key players like Varane and Mount.
This improved fitness will be crucial as they face Bayern Munich in their Champions League opener. Bayern, on the other hand, is also benefiting from the return of key players, setting the stage for an exciting clash.
