Erik ten Hag has warned that his players are suffering from an ‘overload’ of work this season as he confirmed that Antony, Scott McTominay and Anthony Martial and are set to miss the next two games against Leeds and Barcelona.
The three players have joined long-term casualties Christian Eriksen and Donny van de Beek on the injury list. Ten Hag was also without Aaron Wan-Bissaka through illness against Leeds at Old Trafford in midweek while Casemiro started a three-match domestic ban.
As United prepare to meet their rivals again at Elland Road on Sunday before flying to Spain for the first leg of a Europa League playoff against Barca, Ten Hag gave a bleak update on the availability of Martial, Antony and McTominay.
