Mason Mount: Man United receive major injury boost ahead of Liverpool clash

In a surprising turn of events, Mason Mount is set to feature in Manchester United's squad for the upcoming FA Cup showdown against Liverpool, just days after his return from a significant injury layoff. This remarkable comeback is expected to inject fresh energy into United's midfield, offering a glimmer of hope for a successful campaign turnaround.

Despite a lengthy spell on the sidelines due to a calf injury since November, Mason Mount has wasted no time in resuming training and is now poised to make a swift return to competitive football, according to the Atheltic.

Manchester United's manager, Erik ten Hag, expressed his confidence in Mount's fitness during a recent press conference, highlighting his inclusion in the squad for the crucial FA Cup quarter-final clash against Liverpool on Sunday.

 "Mason Mount trained all week with us, he had some full sessions with us, so it's looking good," Ten Hag confirmed.

Mount's resurgence comes at a pivotal moment for Manchester United, as the team grapples with injuries to key players like Lisandro Martinez, Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia, and Anthony Martial.

The upcoming match against Liverpool not only serves as a significant test for United's trophy aspirations this season but also holds implications for Ten Hag's future at the club.
