Lisandro Martinez is still not ready to return to action against Arsenal despite appearing in training this week.
At his pre-match press conference, Erik ten Hag told reporters: "Yesterday, Licha came to me and wanted to play on Sunday against Arsenal but he’s not ready yet.
"He needs a little bit more time to go through the process, but he is so desperate [to play]."
The Manchester United centre-back has been struggling with injuries since the start of 2023/24 and he's no closer to resuming play now than he was months ago.
Once again, this raises serious questions about the medical staff, who have come under fire for the alarming number of injuries this term.
As for Licha, his absence has cost Man United dearly as they have been forced to play without their preferred centre-back choice.
