Manchester United forwards Benjamin Sesko and Bryan Mbeumo have withdrawn from their respective national teams for the current international break, but their absence is not expected to affect the club's upcoming Premier League match against Leeds United on April 13.
Both players featured in United's 2-2 draw with Bournemouth on Friday, with Sesko replacing Mbeumo in the 71st minute. They will remain at Carrington for the next fortnight rather than jetting off to Slovenia and Cameroon respectively. Slovenia were scheduled to face Hungary and Montenegro, while Cameroon were set to meet Australia and China in friendlies.
Noussair Mazraoui, who missed the Bournemouth game, has linked up with Morocco, the recently crowned AFCON champions, for matches against Ecuador and Paraguay. The withdrawals leave United with 11 players departing on international duty this fortnight.
Among those travelling are Kobbie Mainoo and Harry Maguire, who are back in the England setup under Thomas Tuchel for friendlies against Uruguay and Japan. Manuel Ugarte will face his United teammates when Uruguay take on England at Wembley on Friday, before playing Algeria. Portuguese duo Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot will meet World Cup co-hosts Mexico and the USMNT. Casemiro and Matheus Cunha head to the US to play France and Croatia, while Altay Bayindir hopes to help Turkey secure a World Cup spot in play-offs against Romania and potentially Kosovo or Slovakia. Amad's Ivory Coast face South Korea and Scotland.
United will have the bulk of their squad back ahead of the Leeds clash, with Sesko and Mbeumo expected to be fit and available.
