Manchester United have received a timely injury boost with goalkeeper Andre Onana expected to be fit to face Everton next weekend, according to a report.

Onana sparked fresh concerns over Erik ten Hag’s lengthy list of absentees after coming off with an adductor muscle problem during Cameroon’s win over Mauritius.

His substitution quickly left supporters fearing the No 1 would be forced to sit out of the trip to Goodison Park, though a promising update has now been provided. 

Cameroon return to World Cup qualifying action on Tuesday and it is not yet known if the stopper will be able to return between the sticks for his country.

However, the same outlet claims that those close to the 27-year-old say Onana will be available for United against Sean Dyche’s relegation-threatened side. 

Onana has started all 19 of United’s matches this season, with his understudy Altay Bayindir yet to make his debut after joining from Fenerbahce in the summer.

Bayindir, recruited in a deal worth £5million, is said to be rated highly by United’s goalkeeping coaches despite his role on the substitutes’ bench. 

Conversely, Onana has kept four clean sheets in the Premier League to date.

United may lose their £47m man for up to six matches in January should he decide to turn out for Cameroon during the Africa Cup of Nations.

A final decision has yet to be made and Erik ten Hag has held talks over the situation.

Meanwhile, England boss Gareth Southgate has played down concerns over Marcus Rashford’s fitness after the forward was involved in a collision against Malta.

Rashford was substituted off during the routine 2-0 victory at Wembley. 

‘I think he [Rashford] is probably okay,’ Southgate said post-match. ‘We just thought given the nature of the collision it was a chance to get Cole into the game. 

‘I haven’t assessed too much but I think he was okay when he came off.’
