Manchester United’s injury situation has improved significantly, playing a crucial role in their
2-2 draw with Everton.
After missing the 1-0 defeat to Tottenham, Leny Yoro, Christian Eriksen, and Manuel Ugarte all returned to the squad at Goodison Park, with Ugarte scoring in the second half to help secure a comeback.
Ruben Amorim will be hopeful of welcoming back more players in the coming weeks, as United aim to climb the Premier League table and push for success in the FA Cup and Europa League.
Here’s the latest on United’s injury concerns:
Amad Diallo
Amad Diallo has been ruled out for the rest of the season after suffering ankle ligament damage in training, delivering a major blow to Amorim’s squad.
🗣 "Amad was alone when he got injured," Amorim said after the Spurs game. "He was doing a tackle, and his foot got stuck in the grass."
🔴 Potential return date: August 2025
Kobbie Mainoo
United initially expected Mainoo to be sidelined for only a few weeks after sustaining a training injury. However, Amorim remains uncertain about his recovery timeline.
🗣 "Kobbie’s recovery? I don’t know," Amorim admitted before the Everton game. "We have to adapt to the schedule."
🔴 Potential return date: Unknown

Shaw’s injury struggles have continued this season. Despite recently returning to training, he suffered a minor setback.

The young midfielder has been enjoying more playing time under Amorim, but his progress has been halted by an injury sustained in training.

Back-up goalkeeper Bayindir is currently sidelined with an unspecified issue, but Amorim confirmed he is making progress in his recovery.
