Manchester United duo Victor Lindelof and Antony have been ruled out of Sunday’s Premier League clash against West Ham due to minor injuries, boss Erik Ten Hag has confirmed.
The duo are unavailable for selection for the visit of the Hammers, having both started just three days earlier in the three-goal win over FC Sheriff Tiraspol. Antony has become a regular in United’s attack since his big-money summer move from Ajax while Lindelof had been deputising for Raphael Varane, who sustained an injury against Chelsea last weekend.
The absence of the Sweden international defender, coupled with Varane’s unavailability, means that club captain Harry Maguire has been restored to the starting line-up for the first time in the Premier League since the second matchday of the season. Cristiano Ronaldo – who netted in the win over Sheriff – stays in the attack alongside Marcus Rashford.
