Noussair Mazraoui could return to Manchester United's squad for the Leeds trip, according to the club's October 16 update. Michael Carrick said the defender had done some training and was moving back towards involvement.
Progress without a guaranteed start
Mazraoui has missed United's Champions League match in Madrid and the 1-1 draw with Tottenham since the international break. He had left Morocco's late-September win over Lesotho with an apparent problem.
Carrick's hope of including him signals progress rather than confirmation of a start or full-match participation. Leeds is scheduled for 2pm BST on Sunday, equivalent to 8pm in Vietnam.
Other cases require separate treatment
Patrick Dorgu, Benjamin Sesko and Manuel Ugarte are ruled out, while Kobbie Mainoo and Luke Shaw remain uncertain at the update.
Leny Yoro's suspension after his Atletico Madrid red card applies only to European matches, the report says. It should not automatically be extended to the Premier League fixture.
The subsequent European trip to Como adds significance to defensive depth, without determining future lineups in advance.
Matthijs de Ligt returned to the bench in midweek after a lengthy absence. Carrick emphasised patience and gradually rebuilding readiness through training. Being on the bench is a step distinct from immediate confirmation as a starter.
The squad picture therefore combines established absences, unresolved fitness questions, a competition-specific ban and gradual returns. Each requires its own status when assessing United's options against Leeds.
