Manchester United injury update: Benjamin Sesko, Carlos Baleba, Amad Diallo latest news and return dates

Michael Carrick will hope to welcome some fresh faces back into his Manchester United squad as he looks to inspire an upturn in form after the international break.

Sunday’s draw at Fulham meant the Red Devils head off to represent their nations with just one win in their last five.

There was some positive news on the day despite the dour performance. Luke Shaw recovered from a knock to start, while Mason Mount also got some minutes under his belt.

But that was all overshadowed by Benjamin Sesko’s absence after he reaggravated the shin injury which kept him sidelined for the early stages of the campaign.

With a must-win match against Tottenham on the cards in three weeks time, Carrick will hope to have as strong a squad as possible at his disposal.

With that said, here is all the latest Manchester United injury news and potential return dates...

Carlos Baleba , the £70m summer signing from Brighton, is still eagerly awaiting his competitive debut, which is now likely little more than three weeks away.

The Cameroon international arrived in Manchester with an ankle injury but has returned to training and was named to a matchday squad for the first time when United visited Fulham this weekend.

The coming international break will give him time to build up an understanding with his team-mates and improve his fitness, and he will hope to make his competitive bow when the Premier League reconvenes next month.

Carlos Baleba was an unused substitute against Fulham Getty Benjamin Sesko Benjamin Sesko is once again sidelined after aggravating the shin injury which saw him miss the end of last season and the early days of this one.

The Slovenian was injured when Liverpool visited Old Trafford back in May and saw the opening days of the new campaign hampered as he continued to recover, failing to start a match until facing Sabah in the Champions League.

The injury has reared its head again, though, and the striker was forced to skip the trip to Fulham.

“We’re not sure with him yet. He felt a bit of pain after the game. We’re assessing him. He definitely wasn’t ready for today.”

It remains to be seen how long he will take to recover, though United will hope he is fit to return after the international break.
