Injury boost for Manchester United ahead of Carabao Cup

Louis Jackson, Ethan Wheatley and James Nolan all trained with the United first-team this week ahead of the clash with Crystal Palace.

Manchester United are straight back in action on Tuesday night as they prepare to take on Crystal Palace in the third round of the Carabao Cup at Old Trafford (8pm kick-off).

After getting back to winning ways against recently-promoted Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday night, United have two matches against Palace in separate competitions at the same venue in succession.

The two sides also play each other on Saturday afternoon (3pm) in the top-flight. Man United won the Carabao Cup under Erik ten Hag last campaign to end their six-year trophy hoodoo. Here are the latest news and headlines from Old Trafford and beyond.

Meanwhile, Jadon Sancho has been banned from Man United Training Ground Facilities. Man United star Jadon Sancho has been banned from all first team facilities at Man United and it also includes the team dining room. The only way back is for Jadon to apologize.

AS Roma manager Jose Mourinho reportedly wants to reunite with Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho in Italy. Sancho is open to leaving United in January should his exile from first-team training continue into the winter.

The forward is not involved with current plans at Old Trafford after a public falling out between himself and Erik ten Hag.

The United boss accused Sancho of underperforming in training, a statement which the 23-year-old went on to refute on social media. With the winger currently undergoing individual training at Carrington, there are no signs of the situation between both parties resolving itself soon.
