Manchester United trained for the final time before the crucial clash with Bayern Munich on Monday.

Erik ten Hag, the manager, will be anxiously watching the injury report, though, as United must win in order to have any hope of making it to the next round. They are a win five of their games and are currently at the bottom of their Champions League group.

Ten Hag has three days to prepare his team for the match against Bayern. The Red Devils enter the game fresh off a crushing loss to Bournemouth.

Ten Hag’s main concern ahead of Tueday’s game is that both Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial were missing from the session. United later confirmed both forwards were suffering from illness.

While the absences of Rashford and Martial is a concern, there was more positive news in the return of Lisandro Martinez. Martinez has been sidelined for the past three months after suffering a recurrence of a metatarsal issue.

But the Argentine was seen walking out with the main group for training, before peeling off to conduct individual work as part of his rehabilitation. He still has some way to go before he can be considered fully fit though.

Even so, it was be a positive for Ten Hag to see his star defender finally make it back out on the grass. United have suffered without the World Cup winner in their back four so the news he is stepping up his return is a huge boost for the Dutchman.

While they have endured a wretched season, it appears that United’s squad are remaining relaxed about their Champions League prospects. At one point in the session, Alejandro Garnacho, Rasmus Hojlund and Kobbie Mainoo were seen celebrating.

Garnacho was also spotted jumping on the back of Sergio Reguilon as the youngster attempted to keep the feeling light. Ten Hag has insisted he is confident his side are in the right spirit heading into Tuesday’s game.
