Lisandro Martínez fit again, back in contention for Manchester United | OneFootball

The Argentina national team received good news regarding Lisandro Martínez’s physical condition. The Manchester United center-back has recovered from his left calf injury and has returned to training.

The world champion was sidelined for five matches, missing games against Everton (1-0), Crystal Palace (2-1), Newcastle (2-1), Aston Villa (3-1), and Bournemouth (2-2), as well as the national team’s friendlies against Mauritania and Zambia during the latest FIFA international window.

Although Martínez’s injury was not serious, the doctors advised him to stop so it would not worsen. Therefore, after the break, the Argentine is now available to Michael Carrick for next Monday’s match against Leeds United at Old Trafford.

From now on, the Argentine will need playing time in order to make the squad list for the 2026 World Cup. Lionel Scaloni rates him highly, and he is a key piece in shaping the delegation that will travel to the upcoming World Cup.
