Manchester United team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Brighton & Hove Albion

Sports Mole rounds up all of Manchester United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash with Brighton & Hove Albion.

Manchester United will be aiming to get back to winning ways when they host Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Red Devils have had two weeks to reflect on their disappointing 3-1 loss to Leicester City in the FA Cup quarter-finals.

United are unbeaten in nine league matches, however, winning the last two of those without conceding, and are 14 points behind leaders Manchester City with a game in hand.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Man United's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Brighton.


Marcus Rashford

Possible return date: April 4 (vs. Brighton)

Marcus Rashford missed United's defeat to Leicester after injuring his ankle in the first half of the win against AC Milan three days prior. The 23-year-old joined up with England but has since returned to United without playing a game as he continues his recovery.


Mason Greenwood

Mason Greenwood is another who had to pull out of international duty. The youngster was due to represent England at the European Under-21 Championship finals, but it was decided it would be best if he remained at United because of an unspecified injury.
