Blinksportsnews247Luke Shaw, an England international, will have every opportunity to be fit for Sunday’s Premier League trip to Luton Town, according to Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag.
The 28-year-old just returned from a month-long absence due to a hamstring strain, and the Red Devils won all four games with him back in the lineup. He has previously missed a significant portion of the season due to a thigh issue. But last weekend’s 2-1 success against Aston Villa saw him replaced during halftime by Victor Lindelof, who scored in the team’s 1-0 triumph over Luton back in November and now plays on the left side of the back four.
Luke, a former Southampton player with 31 caps for his nation, is still expected to play at Kenilworth Road, according to ten Hag, who stated on the team’s official website: “We are confident Luke can make it, but he is doubtful for the weekend.” He came out as a precaution, and in my opinion, it was the appropriate move—especially if you end up winning the game. We continue to work through Sunday.
Along with Dutch full back Tyrell Malacia, fellow England internationals Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Mason Mount are also sidelined, and Anthony Martial and Lisandro Martinez are recuperating from groin and knee issues, respectively. “Aaron Wan-Bissaka will take some wee
ks as he picked up another injury in training last week,” Ten Hag continued. Tyrell and Mason will require a few more weeks. Malacia experienced hurdles while going through recovery. It’s awful for him and bad for us because it takes too long. However, we’ve made a favorable turn now, and he’ll be back shortly.
