Martinez, Onana, Zirkzee, Mazraoui updates: Man United injury, suspension list vs. Arsenal

Manchester United will begin their 2025-26 Premier League season with a home fixture against Arsenal on Sunday.

The 20-time English champions finished 15th in the Premier League table last season, and there is huge pressure on head coach Ruben Amorim to oversee an improvement during the current campaign.

Arsenal, meanwhile, finished second in England's top flight last term, and they are expected to be in the title argument once again during the new campaign.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man United's injury and suspension issues ahead of the game at Old Trafford.


Lisandro Martinez

Status: Out

Type of injury: Knee

Possible return date: Unknown

Martinez has been on the sidelines since suffering a serious knee injury in February, and while the centre-back is now back in light training, he will not be cleared to play for some time yet.


Andre Onana

Status: Minor doubt

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: August 17 (vs. Arsenal)

Onana has been dealing with a hamstring problem during pre-season, and he again missed out against Fiorentina last time out, but the goalkeeper is in line to play against Arsenal, confirmed Amorim on Friday.


Joshua Zirkzee

Status: Minor doubt

Type of injury: Muscle

Possible return date: August 17 (vs. Arsenal)

Zirkzee has not featured at all during pre-season due to a muscular problem, but the Netherlands international has been backed to return to the squad for this match.


Noussair Mazraoui

Status: Out

Type of injury: Hamstring

Possible return date: August 24 (vs. Fulham)

Mazraoui's hamstring problem, which he suffered against Leeds United in the team's pre-season opener, has proven to be more troublesome than initially feared, and the defender is not available for the game with Arsenal.
