Manchester United received two hits at the same time on the training field before the match against Liverpool this weekend.
Man Utd is preparing to welcome Liverpool at Old Trafford in the FA Cup quarter-finals this season.
Notably, the Red Devils welcomed the return of Mason Mount after many months of recovery. This was the first time he was able to practice with the whole team.
The English star only played 12 matches all season due to injury, after a £55 million transfer from Chelsea last summer.
The 25-year-old has been sidelined since November due to a calf injury. Mount’s return helps Man Utd have more deployment options for the attack.
In addition, Aaron Wan-Bissaka was also able to return to training. Recently, Victor Lindelof has often been placed on the left wing due to Man Utd’s lack of full-backs.
Once Wan-Bissaka recovers, Diogo Dalot can replace Lindelof at left-back.
Man Utd temporarily overcame the crisis when they won 2-0 against Everton in round 28 of the Premier League last weekend.
However, Liverpool will definitely be a big challenge for coach Erik ten Hag and his team.
Despite playing at home, the Red Devils are rated lower than The Kop in this match.
However, a defeat is nothing for Man Utd to worry too much about.
It is important that they preserve their strength to focus on the race for the top 4 Premier League in the remainder of the season
