Bailly, Rojo and more: Solskjaer provides fitness update on six defenders

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has provided an update on the fitness of Eric Bailly, Diogo Dalot, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, Marcos Rojo, Luke Shaw and Axel Tuanzebe ahead of United's trip to Liverpool on Sunday.

“Axel had a setback but he’s working his way towards fitness,” he told MUTV of Tuanzebe who has been sidelined with an injury since the Carabao Cup win over Colchester last month.

“Eric and Tim are fit and available,” the Norwegian continued on Bailly and Fosu-Mensah who are yet to feature for the first team this season but recently played for Under-23s. The duo has been out of action with respective knee problems since last summer.

“Luke is on the training pitch today [Friday] to see how he is. He’s been ill and he’s had a little issue,” Ole added on Shaw who suffered a tight hamstring during the pre-Norwich warm-up last weekend.

“Diogo is back and Marcos is still not ready,” Solskjaer said of Dalot and Rojo.

“He had a bad calf injury that took longer than we expected,” the boss added on the latter who remains sidelined since November.
