Michael Carrick confirms double Man Utd injury blow

Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has confirmed a double injury blow ahead of the Champions League clash against Como on the road tomorrow.

The Red Devils have gone winless for the last six matches in all competitions, and they face another stern challenge against Como away from home on Wednesday.

Ahead of the match, Carrick has confirmed a couple of fresh setbacks. Lisandro Martinez sustained a thigh injury at Leeds United last weekend and has not travelled with the team.

Similarly, Marcus Rashford has not made the trip due to a nagging hip problem. The Englishman has been hampered by the issue since last summer's World Cup.

Carrick is under immense pressure with the run of winless results and the failure to win tomorrow could add scrutiny and speculation over his managerial spot.

With Martinez injured and Leny Yoro suspended, Matthijs de Ligt looks poised to partner Harry Maguire in central defence. He is set to make his first appearance in almost a year after back surgery.
