Shaw suffers from a muscle injury he suffered during his team’s match against Tottenham in the English Premier League on August 19, and has so far missed 9 matches for his team in various competitions, in addition to four international matches for the England national team.
The Ten Hag squad will play seven matches between now and the international break, starting with facing Sheffield United on Saturday in the local league.
United are suffering from several injuries, especially those related to the players who occupy the full-back position, as Aaron Wan-Bissaka has also been absent for some time, while the Spanish left-back Sergio Reguilon, on loan from Tottenham, was recently injured, so Ten Hag was forced to include his new Moroccan midfielder. Sofiane Amrabat is in this position, but the Spaniard has returned to his team’s training and will participate in the match against Sheffield.
Ten Hag said about the condition of the injured, “Of course they are close (to returning), but as for Luke Shaw, I do not expect him to return in the next group of matches. As for Wan-Bissaka, he has returned to group exercises and therefore will be in the squad.”
Ten Hag spoke about the injury of his Brazilian midfielder Casemiro while he was with his country during the 2026 World Cup qualifiers and said in this regard, “He did not complete the first match and then played the second because it was important (against Uruguay). It is a minor injury and he will return from Brazil next week and will recover and be ready.” To face Manchester City next weekend.”
Manchester United has been suffering from a decline in performance since the beginning of the current season, as it has lost 6 matches so far in various competitions and is ranked tenth in the local league.
