Manchester United return to Champions League action on Wednesday evening, as Michael Carrick's side faces Italian side Como. 

Como, managed by Cesc Fabregas, have enjoyed a promising start to their debut season in the Champions League, beating RB Leipzig 4-1 at home and narrowly losing to Feyenoord away. 

United, however, have also won one, lost one, but in less convincing fashion. A 4-0 win against Sabah FK sounds good on paper, but the nine-year-old side had several chances at Old Trafford. The 2-0 loss against Atletico Madrid has already been forgotten about due to Lisandro Martínez's post-match comments. 

With a tough test ahead, here are the latest injury updates at Manchester United. 

What happened: Martínez was withdrawn at half-time against Leeds United on Sunday afternoon and was not seen in open training on Tuesday morning. 

What’s been said: "Licha is not too bad, but he's not with us, we'll have to see if he's ready for the weekend," he told the press ahead of Como.

Possible return date: Sunday, 25 October, vs Bournemouth. 

What happened: Šeško has been battling a shin problem for the majority of 2026. He missed all of pre-season, returned, and has been absent since the international break.

Possible return date: Saturday, 31 October, vs Chelsea.

Possible return date: Sunday, 31 October, vs Chelsea.
