Manchester United have several personnel issues to assess before visiting Como in the Champions League. Ayden Heaven, Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martínez, Kobbie Mainoo, Marcus Rashford and Benjamin Šeško were absent from the latest Carrington training session, according to the report.
Missing training raises selection questions without establishing the same cause or recovery timetable for every player.
Defensive availability under review
Martínez was replaced just after half-time in the 1-1 Premier League draw with Leeds, with Noussair Mazraoui entering in his place. Heaven had already missed that match through illness.
Patrick Dorgu faces a further period out, while Manuel Ugarte continues treatment for a long-term injury. Leny Yoro is unavailable because of a one-match Champions League suspension, a distinct disciplinary reason rather than a fitness assessment.
De Ligt back in training
Matthijs de Ligt has rejoined team training after back surgery, offering a positive development. He has not yet played since recovering, however, and his presence on the training pitch does not confirm readiness for the Como match.
Rashford is also dealing with an injury issue. The range of affected positions requires Michael Carrick to consider both fitness and squad depth during a busy schedule.
United's meeting with Cesc Fàbregas's side therefore arrives while checks remain ongoing. The report establishes training absences, Yoro's European ban and De Ligt's return to work, leaving final match availability and the starting lineup subject to the club's assessment.
