Martinez sends message to Ten Hag amid midfield crisis
Manchester United centre-back Lisandro Martinez has refused to rule out the prospect of stepping into midfield amid Casemiro's upcoming suspension.
The latter, who manager Erik ten Hag has confirmed will feature in Thursday night's Europa League last-16 second-leg clash with Real Betis despite being at risk of another ban, was sent off during the first half of Sunday's goalless draw with Southampton at Old Trafford.
