Manchester United has been handed an injury boost with the return of Mason Mount and Harry Maguire from injury ahead of their Carabao fixture against Crystal Palace.
Mount who arrived at Old Trafford from Chelsea in the last summer transfer window hasn’t been in action ever since he picked up a hamstring injury in United’s 2-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur last month, while ex-Captain Maguire missed out on the squad that faced Burnley last weekend due to a minor injury.
However, training pictures grabbed from Carrington complex today showed both England internationals already in the thick of actions, and poised to be reintegrated back into the squad.
A statement from United’s website on the duo reads: “Mason Mount could be in line for a return to action this week, after training with the Manchester United squad ahead of Tuesday’s Carabao Cup tie with Crystal Palace.
“The summer signing from Chelsea has been sidelined through injury since the defeat at Tottenham Hotspur in our second match of the season.
“However, the England international is clearly stepping things up, with a Premier League clash to follow, also at home to the Eagles, on Saturday afternoon.
“Our training pictures show the players going through their paces at Carrington, with Harry Maguire also taking part.
“The centre-back missed the Bayern Munich game in the UEFA Champions League and the weekend win at Burnley, with Jonny Evans coming in for the injured Lisandro Martinez.”
