Lisandro Martinez Set for Leeds Clash as Carrick Confirms Man Utd Row Is Over

Lisandro Martinez is expected to return to Manchester United’s squad for Sunday’s Premier League meeting with Leeds United after resolving the situation surrounding his recent criticism of the club’s hierarchy.

Head coach Michael Carrick confirmed that the matter had been dealt with following discussions involving the defender, senior club officials and the manager on Thursday. Martinez subsequently issued an apology for his public comments.

The Argentine international had expressed his frustration over United’s summer transfer deals after their Champions League defeat to Atletico Madrid. He questioned whether the club had done enough to strengthen the squad and singled out their technical director Jason Wilcox when discussing the need for further investment.

Speaking ahead of the trip to Elland Road, Carrick said that Martinez had acknowledged his mistake and that the club was ready to move forward. The manager made clear that the issue had been addressed and there was no need to continue dwelling on it.

United will now turn their attention to Sunday’s fixture against Leeds, with Martinez in contention to be included in the travelling squad. The clash comes at an important time for Carrick’s side, who are looking to put their recent difficulties behind them and return back to winning ways.
