Lisandro Martinez and one other player spotted in Man United training yesterday as Club doctor confirmed them fit to start against Lyon

Manchester United supporters finally have reason to celebrate after receiving a long-awaited fitness update ahead of their crucial match against Lyon. After an extended spell on the sidelines, Lisandro Martinez was seen back in full training with the squad yesterday, putting to rest weeks of uncertainty about his return. The tough-tackling Argentine defender has been battling a foot injury that kept him out of action for a significant stretch, raising concerns he might not feature again this season. However, those fears were silenced when the clubโs medical team confirmed just hours later that Martinez is now fully fit and available for selection against Lyon.
In what made the day even better for United fans, another key player also reappeared on the training ground, adding an extra layer of optimism as Erik ten Hag looks to navigate this pivotal period. Although the club has yet to officially confirm the identity of the second returning star, speculation is swirling around names like Luke Shaw and Victor Lindelรถf โ both of whom have also struggled with injuries in recent months.
Martinezโs return is a significant lift for Manchester Unitedโs backline, which has sorely missed his grit, leadership, and calm presence in defense. With the season entering a decisive stage, having him ready to slot back into the heart of the defense is exactly the boost Ten Hagโs side needs. The confirmation from the club doctor that heโs 100% fit removes any lingering doubts and offers fans fresh hope heading into the next challenge.
As excitement builds, the attention now shifts to who will join Martinez in the starting lineup and how his return might reshape Unitedโs defensive setup. Either way, yesterdayโs training session delivered the kind of positive news fans had been desperate for, and the anticipation ahead of the Lyon clash just got a whole lot bigger.
