Ruben Amorim reveals Manchester United injury latest before Tottenham showdown amid Lisandro Martinez boost | OneFootball

Red Devils are bidding to end a run of four straight losses against Tottenham

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has confirmed no fresh injuries ahead of the Premier League match against Tottenham.

"No, there’s no change [to what we are doing about injuries]," he told reporters. "It’s one game every week and then a little bit of luck, because sometimes you have problems with players with knocks, it’s not something that is soft tissues.

"So you never know what is going to happen in the next training. If you play with intensity in training, something can happen, but I think the big reason… of course, we try to do everything well, the big reason is [we have only] one game every week.

"You can give one extra day to the players that you know could struggle in the next training. I think that is the biggest reason."

While Amorim’s injury update is positive, it remains to be seen if Lisandro Martinez will be included in the matchday squad against Spurs for the Saturday lunchtime kick-off in the capital.

Martinez returned to full training last week after spending much of the year on the sidelines as a result of suffering an ACL in the defeat to Crystal Palace back in February.

There were hopes that the Argentine would feature in Man Utd’s trip to the City Ground but Amorim ruled that the centre-back needed more time to build up his fitness.

With Man United not in Europe this season - as a result of losing last season’s Europa League final against Tottenham - Martinez has been able to have a full week of training which means a return to action should not be too far away.
