Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag believes Luke Shaw will be back from injury to face Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday.
The Red Devils boss, speaking to the club’s media team, said the 28-year-old trained with the team on Friday and should be available against the Reds at Anfield.
Man United were sweating over Shaw’s fitness after he limped out of Tuesday’s Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich with a hamstring problem.
The England international didn’t come out for the second half of the 1-0 loss, and made way for Aaron Wan-Bissaka, with Diogo Dalot switching flanks.
The issue came just two-and-a-half weeks after Shaw returned from a long-term lay-off with a thigh muscle injury.
Ten Hag, speaking ahead of the trip to Liverpool, spoke about the fitness of several players alongside Shaw.
While the £150,000-a-week (Spotrac) full-back should be available, Harry Maguire – who also picked up a knock in midweek – has been ruled out for the match.
“Harry, he will not be available for the coming games, but we don’t think it is for the long term,” began Ten Hag.
“Luke Shaw, he trained this morning. So we think he is available for Sunday.”
Ten Hag also confirmed that Marcus Rashford will be back for the Liverpool match, while Anthony Martial remains on the sidelines.
Good news for Manchester United
Ahead of such a difficult fixture, it’s good to hear that Shaw should be available for Manchester United against Liverpool.
The Red Devils have often looked much weaker whenever right-back Diogo Dalot has had to play on the left, so it’s certainly a boost for the Old Trafford side.
Man United are currently in a poor run of form again, and a trip to the current Premier League leaders isn’t ideal. So they’ll need all the help they can get.
