Harry Maguire remains on the right road to recovery after enjoying another training session on Tuesday. The Manchester United captain hasn’t played since May 9 after picking up an ankle ligament injury in the 3-1 victory over Aston Villa. It saw Maguire miss the last four games of the Premier League season, restricted him to just a place on the bench in the Europa League final defeat to Villarreal – though it was unlikely he would ever come on in that match – and England’s opening game of Euro 2020. The manager has received good news on that front, though, as Maguire completed his sixth successive day of training without any further setbacks on Tuesday and he sounds optimistic about his chances of returning to action.
Harry Maguire tweeted: “Another good session in the bank,” accompanied with a smiley, sun and England flag emojis.
While Maguire is on the way back to action, his United teammate Dean Henderson has had to pull out of the England squad due to a hip injury. On Monday Henderson could only train in the gym as a result of the ailment and has now left the squad as a result, with Sheffield United’s Aaron Ramsdale taking his place.
Dean Henderson tweeted: “I worked so hard to be in this position. I’m devastated to have to withdraw through injury!!” , accompanied with an England flag and punch emojis. I want to wish my teammates all the best for the up and coming games. BRING IT HOME.”
