Mainoo and Shaw miss Man Utd training
- Published
Manchester United pair Kobbie Mainoo and Luke Shaw were both missing from training on Monday before the Champions League trip to Atletico Madrid.
Mainoo pulled out of England's recent Nations League campaign because of injury, but completed the full 90 minutes in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Tottenham.
Shaw, who missed training before the opening Champions League game against Sabah last month because he was on a "designated rest day", also started against Spurs but was taken off in injury-time.
In their absence, young midfielder Jack Fletcher and defender Dan Armer trained with Michael Carrick's squad.
Defender Noussair Mazraoui, who missed the Tottenham game after picking up an injury on international duty with Morocco, was also missing, along with longer-term absentees Benjamin Sesko and Patrick Dorgu.
A decision around Mainoo and Shaw travelling to Madrid will be taken on Monday afternoon.
Shaw's absence raises the potential for Leny Yoro and Diogo Dalot occupying the full-back berths against Atletico, with the only other option being 19-year-old Harry Amass.
Matthijs de Ligt, who has been out of action since November with a back issue that eventually required surgery, did train. He has been part of Carrick's squad for the past two games but is yet to get a place on the bench.
