FA Cup: 7 Man Utd players doubtful for Coventry tie

Manchester United are anxiously waiting on the fitness of Harry Maguire amid a defensive injury crisis.

The Red Devils play Championship side Coventry in the FA Cup semi-final on Sunday.

However, Erik ten Hag has a few defensive headaches as he prepares for the match.

Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez, Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof, Jonny Evans and Tyrell Malacia are all already ruled out.

There is also doubt over Maguire’s availability, with the defender missing training throughout this week.

Ten Hag told the media on Friday: “We have some problems I already said.

“Harry [Maguire], all game against Bournemouth he struggled, he had an issue, he had a small injury, he didn’t train this week so far. But now he’s back on the pitch.

“So, we expect him today back in the team training. He will be available I think, I hope, for Sunday.”

He added: “Yeah, Antony and Scott [McTominay] I expect them to be back. Scott didn’t train all week, partially on Wednesday, today I expect him fully. Antony did train the whole week.”
