Manchester United have been plagued with injuries this season, with the vast amount of the first squad being ruled out at one time or another.
The season started with Leny Yoro, Luke Shaw, Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund all missing United kick-off the Premier League campaign due to injury.
Whilst Shaw and Mount yo-yoed between the pitch and the treatment room, Hojlund and Yoro made recoveries, with most of the squad dipping in and out for short periods.
However, Lisandro Martinez’s ACL tear in February marked the first long-term injury of the season, ruling him out of the rest of the campaign.
Amad Diallo looked set to join him in missing the rest of the season, yet has returned to the pitch after damaging a ligament in his ankle, with Kobbie Mainoo also returning after a six-week stint on the side-lines.
Now, Martinez is joined by Joshua Zirkzee, Ayden Heaven, Diogo Dalot and Toby Collyer.
However, Centre Devils can reveal that Diogo Dalot looks set to return by the end of the season.

Diogo Dalot makes strong progress with injury recovery
We’ve been told that the right-back is working hard to get back on the pitch ready for the Europa League final, where United look likely to face Tottenham Hotspur.
It’s understood that he’s making a strong recovery from his calf injury, with Dalot carrying out strength and rehab work at Carrington.
The Portuguese defender has been essential for Ruben Amorim and his side, having covered the team’s left-back shortage before Patrick Dorgu joined the club.
Once Dorgu moved from Lecce, Dalot shifted back to his natural right side, once more contributing to club’s progress, grabbing three goals in the Europa League.
If Dalot can be back by the Europa League final, it’ll be a huge boost for Amorim, one that’s needed to have every chance of qualifying for the Champions League next season.
