Luke Shaw is an injury doubt for Manchester United’s Premier League match against Manchester City this Sunday.

Shaw was replaced late on in United’s 2-2 draw against Everton last Sunday but then missed the 4-0 win over Sabah FK in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

Patrick Dorgu started at left-back in Shaw’s absence and Michael Carrick admits the 31-year-old has not been at full fitness this week.

When asked about Shaw’s availability for City’s visit to Old Trafford this weekend, Carrick said: ‘We’ll have to see.

‘We looked after him a little bit going into tonight. He wasn’t quite ready for it, 100 per cent, so we didn’t risk it. But we’ll see how he is over the next couple of days or so.’

Carrick also explained why Bruno Fernandes was not substituted in the second half against Sabah.
