Danish striker is nearing return after injury lay-off

Manchester United hope to receive a major boost with the potential return of three players for Sunday’s FA Cup quarter-final with Liverpool.

Ten Hag will throw Hojlund in from the start at Old Trafford if possible as United have often looked disjointed in attack without their spearhead.

Harry Maguire could return to the defence after missing the last three games through injury, while Aaron Wan-Bissaka is also touted to be fit for the first time since January.

That would allow United to take Jonny Evans out of the firing line.

The Northern Ireland veteran will sit out the coming internationals to look after a niggling issue in his calf muscle.

Victor Lindelof could also drop out having acted as a makeshift full-back in the absence of Wan-Bissaka, Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.

Ten Hag will update fans on his plans to face Liverpool during Friday’s pre-match press conference.

Doubts: Hojlund, Maguire, Wan-Bissaka, Forson

Injuries: Martinez, Malacia, Shaw, Martial, Mount

Time and date: 3.30pm GMT, Sunday March 17, 2024

Venue: Old Trafford

TV channel: ITV1
