Manchester United midfielder ⁣ Mason Mount is in ​a race ‌against time to⁤ be fit for Thursday’s Premier League match against Wolverhampton Wanderers. ‍The injury, sustained during Saturday’s 3-1 defeat to Newcastle United,will be assessed ⁣ahead of the ⁤game at Molineux Stadium.

United’s Injury List Continues to ‌grow

Beyond ‌Mount’s concern, Manchester United are grappling with a significant number of absentees. Captain Bruno Fernandes ​ remains suspended, while young‍ midfielder Kobbie Mainoo is still recovering. Experienced defenders Matthijs⁤ de Ligt and Harry Maguire are also unavailable for selection.

The Africa Cup of Nations has‌ further ​depleted Erik ten Hag’s squad, with Amad Diallo, Noussair Mazraoui, and Bryan Mbeumo all currently representing their nations. This leaves Ten Hag with limited options, particularly in midfield ⁢and defense.

According to the Premier League’s⁢ official injury ‌table,Manchester United currently have eight players unavailable due to injury or international duty,placing them among the ​clubs with the most significant absences.

Wolves Suffer Suspension,​ but Maintain Strong Home Record

wolverhampton Wanderers will be ‌without‌ midfielder andre for the match⁣ against United. He is serving a⁣ one-match suspension after accumulating his fifth yellow card of the season. Yerson mosquera ⁤is also sidelined due to ‌injury.

despite⁣ these absences,Wolves have been formidable at Molineux Stadium this season.They have ⁣won six of their nine home league games, drawing two and losing only one. This strong home form has been a ‍key factor in their extraordinary performance this season, currently sitting in 11th place in⁢ the Premier League table.
