Casemiro will be eligible for Manchester United’s FA Cup trip to Nottingham Forest on Wednesday.
Erik ten Hag said that he did not know if the Brazilian had sustained a concussion, which would have disqualified him from the cup match at the City Ground owing to procedure, after the player was substituted off in the loss to Fulham.
Ten Hag did, however, clarify at his pregame news conference that Casemiro left the game due to bleeding and was still eligible to play against Forest despite not suffering a concussion.
The Dutchman is greatly in need of this boost, since United has lost several first-team regulars to injury.
A muscle issue kept Rasmus Hojlund out of the Fulham match for at least two weeks, while Luke Shaw and Lisandroc
Martinez are currently experiencing extended periods of inactivity.
Ten Hag started young winger Omari Forson in the starting lineup over the weekend due to Hojlund’s injury, but he was replaced after just 53 minutes.
