\nManchester United have issued crucial updates on the fitness of centre-back duo Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans.<\/p>\n

United have confirmed<\/a> via their website that Varane is set to be ruled out of competitive action for the next few weeks with a muscle injury picked up during the club’s game vs. Chelsea last week.<\/p>\n

The 20-time English champions have relayed about Varane, “The French World Cup winner is aiming to be back in action before the end of the season in May.”<\/p>\n

The Red Devils have also stated that Evans will miss Saturday’s clash against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.<\/p>\n

United explain that like Varane, Evans is recovering from a muscle issue although his setback is not thought to be as serious or long-term compared to his teammate.<\/p>\n

The veteran defender is likely to make his return to action just in time for the Red Devils’ FA Cup semi-final clash at Wembley against Coventry City.<\/p>\n

Both Varane and Evans missed United’s match vs. Liverpool last weekend. In their absence, Erik ten Hag was forced to deploy a centre-back pairing of Harry Maguire and Carrington academy graduate Willy Kambwala.<\/p>\n

Varane and Evans both picked up their muscle injuries in the heartbreaking late defeat at the hands of Chelsea.<\/p>\n

The former France international was taken off at half-time. He seemed to be in pain and unable to continue, prompting his partner at Stamford Bridge, Maguire, to signal to the bench for him to be removed.<\/p>\n

Evans was brought in for Maguire but the 36-year-old only managed 20 minutes before he was also forced out of proceedings.<\/p>\n

Evans and Maguire join Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof on the treatment table<\/a>, leaving Ten Hag and his coaching staff to grapple with an injury crisis in the defensive department.<\/p>\n

It seems that in the near future, Ten Hag will have no choice but to carry on with Maguire and Kambwala – the only fit and available central defenders available to him for selection.<\/p>\n

Varane and Evans have amassed 30 and 25 appearances respectively for United across all competitions this term.<\/p>\n
