Trains, doubtful for Sunday De Ligt (undisclosed) has trained individually but is still doubtful for Sunday's match against Aston Villa, accoridng to his club.

Impact De Ligt missed out on Wednesday's UEL Final and looks likely to miss out on the club's season finale Sunday.

He will look to make the team sheet, but a bench spot seems to be the best he would do after being such a late call.

Unlikely for Friday De Ligt (undisclosed) is unlikely for Friday's match against Chelsea, accoridng to manager Ruben Amorin. "I don't know if he is going to be available."

Impact De Ligt is yet to train, and that leaves him on the outside looking in for Friday's match, seeming more likely to miss out than be an option.

This will force a change, with Harry Maguire and Leny Yoro likely to see the start in the center of the defense while De Ligt is out.

Impact De Ligt appears to be back in the fold for United after around a month out due to a foot injury, as he was back training and is now on the squad list.

He was spotted training with the team on Wednesday, suggesting he is in a good spot to make his return against Bilbao on Thursday in the Europa League.

Not ready for Sunday De Ligt (foot) is not in the squad for Sunday's trip to Bournemouth.

Impact De Ligt has a positive update that his season isn't over last week and now is close to a return. It's great news for the center-back who has made himself an important part of the starting XI.

APRIL 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Will return this season De Ligt (foot) will return this season, according to manager Ruben Almiron. "Matta is going to return this season."

Impact De Ligt will not remain out this season due to his foot injury suffered a few days ago, as his manager took to the stand to confirm this Wednesday. This is good news for the club, as he is a regular starter when fit. However, a timeline for his return is still up in the air.

APRIL 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Added to injury list De Ligt (foot) has been added to the injury list and is out for the time being, according to his club.

Impact De Ligt is heading to the sidelines for a spell after suffering a foot injury, with the defender looking likely to miss weeks due to a foot injury. This could be a tough loss for the club if his absence is extended, as he is typically a starter when fit. He will hope for a quick return despite having no timeline in place, with Harry Maguire and Leny Yoro as likely replacements in the middle of the defense.

APRIL 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Foot issue confirmed De Ligt is struggling with a foot injury, per manager Ruben Amorim. "Matta has a problem in his foot, we are trying to assess. We still don't have the data that he can return,"

Impact De Ligt missed the Manchester derby with the foot injury and is now on the sideline for a Thursday trip to Lyon. The defender will hope to make his return before Sunday's clash with Newcastle, though with the injury still being assessed that is doubtful.
