Erik ten Hag discusses Jadon Sancho and Anthony Martial’s fitness return

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has confirmed that Jadon Sancho and Anthony Martial will both be a part of the squad for Wednesday night’s game against Nottingham Forest.

Both of them had been struggling with fitness issues, but they have been cleared to play.

Ten Hag added that while Scott McTominay still won’t be available, everyone else is fit except him.

Sancho hasn’t played since October and had not taken part in any training session until December.

He was placed on an individual programme to improve his fitness and he eventually rejoined the team two weeks ago.

On the other hand, Martial has struggled with various injuries this season and is set to make his first appearance in some time.

Meanwhile, Dutchman Wout Weghorst has been performing impressively as cover up front during Martial’s absence according to Ten Hag.
