Manchester United player Lisandro Martinez has revealed that he has recovered from the injury that sidelined him since April.
The 25-year-old underwent surgery after fracturing his metatarsal during United’s Europa League quarter-final against Sevilla.
Martinez, who was signed from Ajax for £56.7 million last summer, took to Twitter to announce his return. His comeback is seen as great news for United, as he had an impressive debut season, contributing to 20 clean sheets in 45 games across various competitions.
So happy to be back 100% 💪🏼👹

Man United has formed an impressive defensive partnership with Raphael Varane and Martinez. The duo has brought about a positive change in the team’s defensive approach, displaying the quality of their tackles and interceptions.
Martinez, being a left-footed player, adds a different dimension to the team’s ball distribution.
He is known for his intelligent defending and ability to make incisive passes through the middle, making United more comfortable when playing out from the back.
