Manchester United have been boosted by the return of Casemiro for today’s Premier League visit of Nottingham Forest.

Michael Carrick Carrick missed experienced midfielder Casemiro for his side’s most recent outing - a 0-0 draw at Sunderland - but he has been able to welcome the Brazilian back into the fray for the visit of Forest.

The former Real Madrid man, who will play his last match at Old Trafford before leaving the club as a free agent in the summer, had been out with a minor knock.

Also returning to United’s midfield ranks is Manuel Ugarte, who also missed the trip to Wearside with a back problem and takes his place on the bench.

It isn’t all good news for Carrick, however, with Benjamin Sesko still sidelined with a shin problem that also kept him out of the visit to the Stadium of Light.

Matthijs de Ligt is a longer-term absentee as he will undergo surgery that will keep him out for three months, according to Carrick. Otherwise, United are at full strength.
