Martinez, Hojlund, De Bruyne, Nkunku - Manchester United and Premier League rivals injury latest

Manchester United are not the only Premier League side hampered by high-profile injuries right now.

During their 1-0 win against Wolves at Old Trafford on Monday night, United were dealt a fitness blow when Lisandro Martinez had to be withdrawn at half-time with an ankle problem. He joins Amad Diallo, Tyrell Malacia and Rasmus Hojlund - among others - on the treatment table at Carrington.

It looks increasingly like De Bruyne will not return before Christmas.
