Eriksen, Garnacho, Shaw - Manchester United injury latest and return dates ahead of Everton

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag delivered a mix bag of injury news ahead of the Premier League game with Everton.

The good news is that Christian Eriksen will be part of the matchday squad for the first time in more than two months after overcoming an ankle injury inflicted by Reading's Andy Carroll during the FA Cup fourth round tie in January. But it is one in and one out for United with Luke Shaw unavailable after limping off in midweek against Brentford.

Tom Heaton, Alejandro Garnacho and Donny van de Beek are also out. Casemiro serves the final match of his four-game suspension. Here's the latest from the Old Trafford treatment table.
