More misery for Man Utd! Harry Maguire & Manuel Ugarte set to miss Europa League trip to Real Sociedad as Ruben Amorim dealt frustrating double injury blow

Premier League

Leicester

Manchester United

<p>Both players sustained knocks during <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/man-utd-player-ratings-vs-fulham-victor-lindelof-bruno-fernandes-matthijs-de-ligt/blt2d4f1ee1f216f20a" target="_blank">Sunday's FA Cup fifth-round defeat at home to Fulham</a> and were withdrawn during the match. According to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6176989/2025/03/05/ugarte-maguire-manchester-united-fitness-update/?source=twitteruk" target="_blank"><em>The Athletic</em></a>, it is unlikely that Maguire or Ugarte will board the flight to Spain with the rest of the United squad.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The pair join an extensive injury list, which sees Amorim down to the bare bones in terms of availability. Lisandro Martinez, Amad Diallo, Luke Shaw, Kobbie Mainoo, Mason Mount and Jonny Evans are all also absent for the foreseeable future. Meanwhile, Chido Obi-Martin is ineligible for the Sociedad game, but Toby Collyer is set to return.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Manchester United said on their <a href="https://www.manutd.com/en/news/detail/training-update-from-carrington-ahead-of-real-sociedad-first-leg" target="_blank"><em>official website</em></a>: "In addition to Manuel Ugarte's absence, there was no Harry Maguire in [today's] session. It is understood that both Ugarte and Maguire look set to miss the game with minor knocks sustained at the weekend, but we will confirm the travelling squad when the players head to the airport."</p>

WHAT MANCHESTER UNITED SAID

<p>United's final chance of silverware this season is on the line as they head to Real Sociedad for Thursday's first-leg clash, before they host the second leg at Old Trafford next week. A visit from Arsenal in the Premier League sits between the two games on Sunday afternoon.</p>
