Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo did not feature in a behind-closed-doors friendly against Barnsley after having a slight setback in his recovery from an ankle injury.
The midfielder has been training with the first team again for the first time since pre-season, having been pictured with the rest of the squad in the build-up to the Champions League match versus Galatasaray last week, but his return date has now been delayed.
Raphael Varane missed the 2-1 win over Brentford last weekend due to a minor knock. The Frenchman is expected to be back available after the international break.
Lisandro Martinez underwent surgery on a broken metatarsal earlier this month. The defender has been carrying the issue since the back end of last season, and he had been taking painkillers to get through matches.
However, it was decided that the defender needed to get the injury sorted once and for all. He is expected to be sidelined for 3 months, with his return pencilled in for early in the New Year.
