Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw have been key players for Manchester United as they aim to qualify for next season’s Champions League.
The two defenders have been long-time members of the team and have secured their spots in Michael Carrick’s starting lineup during his tenure.
Under Carrick, the team has gone unbeaten in seven matches, winning six, which has helped them rise to third in the Premier League.
However, during the match against Crystal Palace, both players left the field amid concerns about their health.
Shaw required assistance from the medical team in the 23rd minute and was replaced by Noussair Mazraoui.
Later, Maguire exited the match after being substituted for Ayden Heaven in the closing moments, raising further worries about his condition.
Michael Carrick provided an update on the two players, aiming to keep fans informed ahead of the upcoming match against Newcastle United.
In a post-match interview with the BBC, Carrick said: “They just weren’t feeling too well, so hopefully they will be feeling better soon.”
With this news, it seems their absence may not be lengthy. However, with United facing Newcastle midweek, both players could be doubtful for the match.
Fans will likely look to Carrick for further updates on their status in the following days.
Additionally, attention might turn to the squad to see who could step in for Shaw and Maguire against Eddie Howe’s team on Wednesday.
