Carlos Baleba, Luke Shaw and Matthijs de Ligt have been included in Manchester United’s travelling squad for their Premier League game against Fulham on Sunday but Benjamin Sesko has missed out.

Michael Carrick’s side departed for London on Saturday afternoon ahead of their match at Craven Cottage on Sunday.

Sesko, who started in the 3-2 defeat to Brighton in the Carabao Cup onWednesday night, was not part of United’s travelling squad, casting a major doubt over his availability against Fulham this weekend.

However, in more positive news for Carrick, Shaw is in contention to return at left-back after missing United’s last three games.

New summer signing Baleba, who joined in a £70 million deal from Brighton last month, could also make his debut for United.

The 22-year-old has missed the start of the new Premier League campaign due to an ankle ligament injury.
