Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. West Ham United

Man United injury, suspension list vs. West Ham

Manchester United travel to West Ham United on Sunday afternoon hoping to maintain their place in the Premier League's top four.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men, after failing to win three consecutive games prior to the international break, have claimed important 1-0 victories over Leicester City and Astana this week.

However, the Red Devils will be wary of the threat carried by West Ham, who convincingly beat United 3-1 in last season's corresponding fixture.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Man United ahead of the match at the London Stadium.


Luke Shaw

Status: Out Type of injury: Thigh Possible return date: September 30 (vs. Arsenal)

The Englishman picked up a thigh injury against Crystal Palace ahead of the international break and was ruled out for a month, meaning that the earliest possible return would be the meeting with Arsenal in ten days' time.


Anthony Martial

Status: Out Type of injury: Thigh Possible return date: September 30 (vs. Arsenal)

Martial is another player who picked up an injury ahead of the international break and is yet to return, with Solskjaer confirming during Friday's press conference that the winger had not recovered in time for the meeting with Manuel Pellegrini's side.


Eric Bailly

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

The Ivorian has not featured once this season due to a knee ligament injury sustained during pre-season, with recent reports suggesting that he could return to action in November, which would be ahead of schedule.


Paul Pogba

Status: Out Type of injury: Ankle Possible return date: September 30 (vs. Arsenal)

It had been thought that Pogba, injured since the 1-1 draw at Southampton, could recover from an ankle problem in time for this game, but Solskjaer confirmed after beating Astana that the talismanic Frenchman would not return for West Ham.


Timothy Fosu-Mensah

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

The Dutchman remains some way from returning to action at Old Trafford after sustaining a knee ligament injury which required surgery during his loan spell at Fulham.


Daniel James

Status: Minor doubt Type of injury: Knock Possible return date: September 22 (vs. West Ham United)

James was unavailable on Thursday night due to a knock sustained against Leicester, although Solskjaer declared on Friday that he was "hopeful" of the 21-year-old returning this weekend.
