Brentford has issued an update on Paris Maghoma, Reiss Nelson and Gustavo Nunes ahead of Saturday’s game against Manchester United, which will be broadcast live on TNT Sports (12.30pm kick-off BST). The Bees are unbeaten at Gtech Community Stadium this season, with Fábio Carvalho’s late finish earning Keith Andrews’ side a point against Chelsea in their last home game in the Premier League.
Maghoma has had to build his fitness having missed a large part of pre-season. The plan is for the midfielder to reintegrate into team training next week.
Nunes has trained well this week. He will feature for Brentford B in their upcoming games to build fitness and match sharpness.
Nelson missed a week of training due to illness. He has reintegrated into team training and will be assessed to see whether he could feature against the Red Devils on Saturday.
