Casemiro, Hojlund, Shaw - Manchester United injury news and predicted return dates

Manchester United could be without a host of players for their FA Cup tie against Nottingham Forest on Wednesday night but have received good news on Casemiro's head injury.

The former Real Madrid powerhouse, 32, had to be taken off during the club's Premier League defeat against Fulham on Saturday afternoon. His withdrawal came following a clash of heads.

United were also missing Rasmus Hojlund (muscular) as the Dane prepares to sit out the next two to three weeks with an issue he picked up in training. United have been hit harder than most when it comes to injuries this season and Erik ten Hag will, once again, not have several first-team squad members at his disposal at the City Ground on Wednesday night (7.45pm).
