Manchester United suffered a 1-0 defeat to Everton at Old Trafford, ending their five-game unbeaten streak. Despite Everton being reduced to ten men early in the game, the Red Devils couldn’t find an equaliser after Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall’s goal before halftime.
Matheus Cunha
Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha missed the Everton clash due to a minor knock sustained during training at Carrington. Manager Ruben Amorim confirmed the injury is not serious but emphasized caution.
“It was a knock in training. I don’t know how long he is going to be out. I think it’s nothing serious but we cannot risk players,” Amorim said. “We have to show everybody that when you are not 100%, we have other options to cope with the game demands.”
Potential return: November 30, 2025 vs Crystal Palace (A)
Benjamin Sesko
Forward Benjamin Sesko injured his knee during the 2-2 draw against Tottenham before the international break. Amorim revealed that Sesko is undergoing recovery and could return around the same time Man United players depart for the Africa Cup of Nations.
“He is going to stay a few weeks out. It’s not serious but we have to be careful. He is recovering well and should return when Amad and Mbeumo leave for AFCON,” said Amorim.
Potential return: Early December 2025
Harry Maguire
Defender Harry Maguire missed the Everton game due to a hamstring issue picked up against Tottenham. Maguire has yet to resume full training, suggesting he will be unavailable for some time.
Amorim recalled Lisandro Martinez for the fixture, though the Argentine remained an unused substitute. Fans can read more about United’s defensive challenges vs Everton.
