Manchester United centre-back Lisandro Martinez will miss the rest of the season after fracturing a metatarsal bone in his foot. The 25-year-old sustained the injury in United's 2-2 Europa League quarter-final against Sevilla on Thursday. His centre-back partner Raphael Varane also sustained an injury and is expected to be out for a few weeks. Martinez joined United from Ajax last July in a deal worth up to £57m and has played in 27 of United's Premier League matches this season. Varane, who joined the club from Real Madrid in August 2021, has made 21 league appearances this season. United are fourth in the Premier League with nine games remaining and are still in the FA Cup as well as the Europa League. Manager Erik ten Hag said there are four or five good centre-halves who can do the job. Centre-backs Maguire and Victor Lindelof are the likely options to fill in for Martinez and Varane. Luke Shaw has missed the past two games with a hamstring injury but Ten Hag said the England international could return on Sunday. Marcus Rashford is also out
