Manchester United are in a defensive injury crisis heading into their clash with Nottingham Forest but the Red Devils academy could be set to help dig them out of a hole once more.
Erik ten Hag is without key defensive duo Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane for this weekend’s trip to the City Ground. The Argentine has been ruled out for the remainder of the season after injuring his metatarsal in Thursday evening’s draw with Sevilla.
He will be joined on the sidelines by Varane who is set to be ruled out for a few weeks after being withdrawn against the Spanish side at half-time. Their respective injuries have left United boss Ten Hag with a problem to solve at centre-back.
