Manchester United sank to 15th in the Premier League after the 1-0 defeat at Spurs and as Ruben Amorim turns his attention towards Saturday's trip to Everton, there is little cause for optimism with the Portuguese counting an absentee list that can make up a full team.

11 players missed out on the visit to the English capital at the weekend, with both long-term and short-term blows plaguing the Red Devils dressing room. Amad Diallo and Lisandro Martinez's season-ending injuries take them out of Amorim's plans to salvage the current campaign.

But the 40-year-old will be hoping that some of his injury-hit stars will be able to beat the race against time to get back to fitness for what will be Man United's last-ever visit to Everton's Goodison Park.

With five days to go until the fixture, here's how things stand in the medical department at Carrington.

Atlay Bayindir

Injury: Muscle

The hero of the FA Cup win over Arsenal in the third round has sat out Man United's last two outings due to an unspecified concern. Amorim Sunday's defeat against Tottenham, Amorim said: “Altay, I think he has a problem. So, he is not available for the game,” Amorim said before Spurs.

Amad Diallo

Injury: Ankle ligament injury

Asked on Sunday if Diallo would be out for the rest of the season, Amorim said: "I think so. Sometimes things happen and there are seasons that everything happens at the same time. Maybe we'll find new ways to create situations. Maybe we will find good things in this difficult moment."

Potential return: Next season

Kobbie Mainoo

Injury: Calf

The news of the 19-year-old's blow arrived at the same time as Collyer's.

Injury: Hamstring

The former Chelsea gem has been struggling with injuries throughout his time at Old Trafford. He is yet to feature for United in 2025 after sustaining another setback in December.

And that’s it, it's part of football, and you continue.”

Potential return date: April

Manuel Ugarte

Injury: Muscle
