    Martinez is available again after recovering from the ACL injury he suffered against Crystal Palace in February, having returned to the bench versus Everton and now cleared to feature as United try to restart their European push from a congested mid-table.

    November 2025

    Pulisic is unlikely to feature against Lazio after pulling out of Wednesday’s training with muscular discomfort, just as he was regaining rhythm following a recent hamstring layoff. Milan will likely err on the side of caution given his importance. Allegri confirmed Pulisic “is unlikely to play” but left a small window for late improvement with two days left before kick-off. The winger has seven goals and two assists in 10 games this season, so Milan must adjust their attacking plan if he misses out.

Slot now hopes to have at least some of the trio available as he fights to stabilise results and confidence.

    Teenage forward Kai Rooney is closing in on a return from a serious injury suffered in September that left him on crutches and in a protective boot, ending a spell he described online as “life can’t get worse” while he endured a lengthy lay-off away from Manchester United’s academy pitches. Having resumed training at the start of the month, Rooney is pushing to be fit for the U18s’ FA Youth Cup clash against Peterborough, moved to Old Trafford instead of Leigh Sports Village. The tie could deliver his first appearance at the stadium, potentially alongside highly rated team-mate JJ “Kid Messi” Gabriel in a landmark night for both prospects.
