Race against time Yoro enjoyed an extended run of starts while Lisandro Martínez was sidelined. He lined up alongside Harry Maguire regularly in the Argentine’s absence.

Ironically, Martínez got himself sent off against Leeds, leaving Yoro and Ayden Heaven as the only fit natural centre-backs Carrick had to call on. The young duo appeared poised to start against Chelsea, but fate dealt United a cruel blow when Yoro was sidelined by an injury.

However, a recent update indicated that the issue is not as bad as seriously feared and United are hopeful of having him back for Monday’s home game against Brentford. Carrick confirmed as much, telling the media that it was not a major problem.

Training ground update United say that there was no sight of Yoro at the club’s training complex today. The club also notes, “Matheus Cunha was not involved, as he is on a recovery day.
” “Youngsters such as Shea Lacey, Jack Moorhouse and Sonny Aljofree were also part of the group, preparing for the 20:00 BST kick-off. ” Like Yoro, Cunha is also an injury doubt after the Chelsea game, but it appears all is well with the Brazilian and he will be back for Brentford. United need just six points from their remaining five games to mathematically book their spot in the Champions League.
