JAKARTA - Harry Maguire is most likely absent from Manchester derby this weekend. The Manchester United (MU) player was injured.

He got the injury while defending the England national team appearing in the UEFA Nations League. When appearing against Germany, Maguire was seen limping.

Harry Kane had revealed the conditions experienced by his compatriot. Three Lions captain said Maguire played with pain in his leg.

"Maguire was injured and he played five or ten minutes by holding back pain in his leg," Kane said.

The same source said that the situation prevented Maguire from being able to participate in strengthening the Red Devils while undergoing the Manchester derby against City at the Etihad Stadium, Sunday, October 2.

However, Maguire's injury is believed not to be a major blow to Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag. The reason is, the Dutchman recently did not use Maguire's services.

The player sits more on the bench. Ten Hag believes better in the appearance of Leandro Martinez and Raphael Varane.

Against Man City, Ten Hag certainly wants to gather his squad as best as possible. Because the meeting with The Citizen is a place to prove MU's positive streak from the last four matches in the Premier League.
