Manchester United's head coach, Ruben Amorim, is expected to have his defensive options bolstered with the return of Lisandro Martinez from injury.
Martinez, considered a leader and a key player, has been out for most of Amorim's tenure, during which the coach has opted for a back-three system featuring Matthijs de Ligt, Harry Maguire, and Luke Shaw.
With Martinez's return imminent, Amorim will have an additional option to consider, particularly in light of criticism from Paul Parker regarding Luke Shaw's performance.
Martinez is eagerly awaiting his return to full first-team training, and his comeback is expected to provide a significant boost to the team.
Amorim can finally begin to plan to make use of the World Cup winner, who is considered a leader so long as he’s fit to play.
Author's summary: Martinez's return to training is highly anticipated.
