Manchester United will welcome Lisandro Martinez back to their starting line-up this Saturday afternoon against Brighton after the defender shrugged off a foot injury.
The Argentina defender did not play despite travelling to South America for his country’s World Cup qualifiers, but will likely partner Victor Lindelof in defence after he was also declared fit.
Sofyan Amrabat is available for his debut following a minor issue during his international duty.
Mason Mount will continue to miss out but, along with Raphael Varane, Ten Hag described him as “in a good place” ahead of a return to action soon. Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia remain absent.
The much-publicised absence of Antony opens up a big question on the right wing, with natural replacement Jadon Sancho being officially exiled ahead of the game after his public falling out with Ten Hag.
United are set to at least have Rasmus Hojlund available for his full debut up front after a lively introduction off the bench at Arsenal before the international break.
Predicted Man Utd XI: Onana; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Martinez, Dalot; Eriksen, Casemiro; Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford; Hojlund
Injuries: Shaw, Mainoo, Malacia, Varane, Amad, Heaton, Varane, Mount
