Lisandro Martinez is among the Manchester United squad heading to Dublin for a training camp on Monday, with the centre-back targeting a comeback against Leeds next week.
United have named a 25-man group set to fly out to Ireland on Monday for a brief training camp ahead of their Premier League clash with Leeds on April 13. Martinez has missed the last five games, having not played for United since the 1-1 draw with West Ham on February 10 due to a calf injury.
Bryan Mbeumo and Benjamin Sesko have also been included after pulling out of international duty with Cameroon and Slovenia respectively, and both will be in the frame to feature against Daniel Farke’s side.
Matthijs de Ligt is missing as he continues his recovery from injury, while Diogo Dalot and Tom Heaton are ruled out through illness. De Ligt has has not featured since the 2-1 win over Crystal Palace on November 30 due to a frustrating back injury.

Patrick Dorgu has been undertaking individual training at Carrington as he presses ahead with his rehabilitation from a hamstring injury, and he has also been named in the travelling party, though the 21-year-old won’t be sufficiently fit to feature against Leeds, reports the Manchester Evening News. He has been out since the 3-2 away win at Arsenal on January 25.
Michael Carrick has further called up academy youngsters Fred Heath, Yuel Helafu, Jim Thwaites and Victor Musa, with the training camp running until Thursday.
Harry Maguire is also included in the squad, despite being suspended for the Leeds fixture. United’s most recent outing was the 2-2 stalemate with Bournemouth on March 20, and a combination of the international break and FA Cup quarter-final scheduling means they face a 24-day gap without competitive action.

The squad have been afforded some downtime during that spell, while those on international duty were also given a few days off at the tail end of last week, before reconvening at Carrington on Monday and departing for Ireland.
Training camp squad
Goalkeepers: Altay Bayindir, Senne Lammens, Dermot Mee, Fred Heath.
Defenders: Noussair Mazraoui, Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia, Patrick Dorgu, Leny Yoro, Luke Shaw, Ayden Heaven, Yuel Helafu.
Midfielders: Mason Mount, Bruno Fernandes, Casemiro, Manuel Ugarte, Kobbie Mainoo, Jim Thwaites.
Forwards: Matheus Cunha, Joshua Zirkzee, Amad, Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko, Victor Musa.
United sit third in the Premier League table, having won seven of the 10 games under Carrick’s management, taking 23 from a possible 30 points. They have seven games remaining in the 2025/26 season before a decision will be taken on whether Carrick will be appointed on a permanent basis.
