Sancho and Martial to return for Man United in EFL Cup

Jadon Sancho and Anthony Martial will return for Manchester United s EFL Cup semi-final second leg against Nottingham Forest, Erik ten Hag confirmed.

Sancho has not featured for United since October s 1-1 draw against Chelsea due to circumstances with fitness and mood .

Meanwhile, Martial s last appearance came in the victory over Manchester City at Old Trafford earlier this month when he was withdrawn at half-time.

The pair are back available for United ahead of Wednesday s clash at Old Trafford, where the hosts lead 3-0 from last week s first leg.

We have some issues, Ten Hag told club media on Tuesday.

I think tomorrow that Anthony Martial and Jadon Sancho will return in the game squad, but Scott McTominay will still be absent.

I think also the next game [against Crystal Palace] he will be absent. We have to see how that process will go. And for the rest, I think everyone is fit.

Already having one foot in the EFL Cup final at Wembley, United will pay close attention to Tuesday s contest between Newcastle United and Southampton to discover their potential opponents.

United last won the EFL Cup in 2016-17 under Jose Mourinho, a season where the Europa League was also won and a campaign that represents the last time the club won a trophy.

All eyes on next week!
