Diogo Dalot - Getting tests for hamstring injury Dalot has returned to his club's training facilities Friday in order to undergo tests on a hamstring injury suffered at the World Cup, according to Samuel Luckhurst of the Manchest...

Impact Dalot started the final three matches of Portugal's time in Qatar after an injury to Nuno Mendes shifted around the formation, playing fairly well. His status will be one to track with just enough time to recover from a minor muscular injury by the Dec. 27 match against Nottingham Forest. Until the World Cup, Dalot had started 19 times between the league and UEL, and Tyrell Malacia could fill in on the right flank as needed.

Raphael Varane - Two clearances Varane made two clearances and one interception during Wednesday's 2-0 win over Morocco.

Impact Varane hasn't piled up the stats throughout the World Cup, but he has been a nailed-on starter as France make their way to a second straight World Cup final. Varane will likely find himself partnering either Dayot Upamecano or Ibrahima Konate in the final, both partnerships that have worked well for France, though they have only earned a single clean sheet.

Jadon Sancho - Training in Netherlands Sancho is currently in the Netherlands training with coaching colleagues of manager Erik ten Hag, according to the Athletic.

Impact It was previously believed that Sancho had simply stayed home in Manchester while his teammates traveled to either Spain or Qatar for the World Cup recess, but it's now been revealed that he's training with a separate team of EtH specialists in Holland. The individual program is reportedly aimed at getting the talented, young winger back to full fitness for the second half of the EPL season. Only time will tell how long or effective this new approach will be, but United supporters should feel some cautious optimism that he's headed in the right direction.
