As per the Manchester Evening News, Manchester United centre-back Harry Maguire is expected to be fit for the clash against Coventry City in the FA Cup semi-final clash on Sunday.
It is a huge timely boost for the Red Devils as they are already facing an injury crisis. The English star was seen holding his thighs during the draw against Bournemouth.
He was seen talking with the team doctors amid fears that he might miss out on the next match. He was allowed to play the full 90 minutes against the Bees.
He didn’t participate in Tuesday’s training session. However, as per the latest claims, the former captain is fit to face Coventry and he has rested as a precautionary measure.

Erik ten Hag is already playing without Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez, Jonny Evans and Victor Lindelof. Even Luke Shaw is not present to fill the void left by the regular centre-backs.
The manager had no choice but to start Willy Kambwala in defense alongside Maguire. The youngster was brilliant in the draw against Liverpool and he earned praise from Rio Ferdinand regarding the same.
However, he had a game to forget last week as his slop gifted Bournemouth an easy goal. Dominic Solanke hit the back of the net after being unmarked in the box.
We expect Kambwala to start alongside the 31-year-old in the FA Cup tie. Meanwhile, Maguire has silenced the crowd with his performances for the club this year.
He has been a reliable player for Ten Hag and the former Leicester City star has stepped up whenever the team needed him the most. He has got an ample amount of opportunities at Old Trafford this season due to the long injury list.
