According to reports from The Express yesterday evening, Manchester United are faced with three major injury doubts for their Premier League clash with Everton next weekend. 

Captain Wayne Rooney has been ruled out of England’s Euro 2016 qualifier against Estonia this evening after picking up ankle injury in 3-0 defeat to Arsenal last Sunday and could be sidelined for the Three Lions’ trip to Lithuania on Monday too.

Likewise, Marcos Rojo withdrew himself from the Argentina squad in order to regain fitness in time for the Red Devils’ visit to Goodison Park after missing the last four games with a hamstring injury – but his return could come four days later against CSKA Moscow in the Champions League instead.

And the latest United star faced with the prospect of missing the Everton clash is midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger. He watched from the sidelines last night as Ireland recorded a shock 1-0 victory over Germany following an injury in training.

The seriousness of the World Cup winner’s injury remains unconfirmed. But Louis van Gaal will be reluctant to rush a 31 year-old with a history of recent injury problems back into the Red Devils’ starting line-up.

Everton, meanwhile, will be without Leighton Baines and Steven Pienaar who are sidelined until November. According to The Physio Room, however, John Stones, Seamus Coleman, Tom Cleverley and Mohamed Besic could all potentially return.

    I am not satisfied as a person with the kinds of players that are brought into united squad
    also the confidence, team spirit, discipline and fighting to the last charisma has all disappeared completely.
    I want to say here that many fans of united has lost the test in united because the coach is worsening the whole thing.
    united is now that of the most struggling team in EPL. Nooooooooooooooooooo
