"Manchester United need as big an injury boost as they can get after they suffered a 3-1 defeat by Brentford last weekend. Further pressure was piled onto Ruben Amorim as the Red Devils fell to another loss at the Gtech Community Stadium, where Igor Thiago's brace and Mathias Jensen condemned them to a third defeat of the campaign. Benjamin Sesko getting off the mark for his new side was the sole positive on a disappointing day in west London,"
"That said, he also had a couple of returning stars to call upon, the likes of Matheus Cunha and Mason Mount, who had completed their comebacks from their respective knocks against Chelsea, before playing further part in the Brentford debacle. Casemiro missed out on the trip to the capital with a suspension after his two yellows in the 2-1 win over the Blues at Old Trafford, while Amad Diallo was given compassionate leave after losing a family member."
"Amorim confirmed that Moroccan defender Mazraoui would be out until the international break ahead of the game against Brentford. The former Ajax and Bayern Munich man has been struggling on and off with a thigh injury since pre-season, and is unlikely to return to action until next month/ Potential return date: October 19, 2025 vs Liverpool (H) There is, however, more positive news for United, with Lisandro Martinez slowly making his comeback from an anterior cruciate ligament injury."
Manchester United lost 3-1 to Brentford, with Igor Thiago scoring twice and Mathias Jensen adding a goal, leaving Benjamin Sesko as United's lone scorer. Matheus Cunha and Mason Mount returned from knocks but could not prevent the defeat. Casemiro missed the Brentford trip due to suspension and Amad Diallo was granted compassionate leave. Mazraoui will be out until the international break because of a persistent thigh problem, with a potential return date listed as October 19, 2025. Lisandro Martinez is back in team training while progressing slowly from an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
