Marc Jurado named in Manchester United squad vs Nottingham Forest

Marc Jurado has been named in the Manchester United squad for the first time against Nottingham Forest.

Right-back Jurado arrived at the City Ground with the rest of the United players on Sunday afternoon but Luke Shaw was not present. Scott McTominay and Tyrell Malacia were also missing.

Shaw came off in the 1-0 win over Brentford with an unspecified injury last week and has missed the last two games against Sevilla and Everton.

Jurado, 19, joined the United academy from Barcelona in 2020 and started in all six of the Under-18s' triumphant FA Youth Cup run last season.

The Catalan trained with the United first team last season and has also been involved in sessions this season.

United are without Lisandro Martinez for the remainder of the season as he fractured his metatarsal in the 2-2 Europa League quarter-final first leg draw with Sevilla.

Raphael Varane, who was also forced off in midweek, is sidelined for a few weeks, Marcus Rashford is out with a groin strain and Alejandro Garnacho has not played in five weeks due to an ankle injury.

Full United squad: De Gea, Butland, Bishop, Dalot, Jurado, Wan-Bissaka, Williams, Maguire, Lindelof, Sabitzer, Casemiro, Fred, Fernandes, Iqbal, Pellistri, Antony, Eriksen, Elanga, Sancho, Martial, Weghorst.
