NafisaManchester United manager Ruben Amorim has shared injury updates ahead of Saturday’s Premier League fixture against Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford.The Red Devils are reeling from their first loss under Amorim, a 2-0 defeat to Arsenal on Wednesday.
Despite a strong first-half performance, United faltered after the break, slipping to 13th in the league table and falling seven points behind the Champions League spots.In his pre-match press conference, Amorim confirmed that Victor Lindelof has resumed training following a muscle injury but will not feature against Forest.
“Victor has returned to training but isn’t available for tomorrow; maybe in the next game, he will be,” Amorim explained. Jonny Evans remains sidelined and unavailable.Lindelof, described as “brilliant” by former manager Erik ten Hag, has a contract until June 2024 and will be eager to reclaim a regular starting spot, possibly in Thursday’s Europa League clash against Viktoria Plzen.Tomorrow’s late kick-off against Forest presents a crucial opportunity for United to bounce back and reignite their pursuit of a top-four finish. Anything less than a win against Nuno Espirito Santo’s side could see United fall further behind in the race for European football, adding pressure to Amorim’s early tenure at Old Trafford.
