  "account": "On Friday afternoon, Manchester United manager Michael Carrick held a media conference to give an injury update for United's upcoming match against Tottenham Hotspur. The manager indicated that three players would be absent from the squad, with Brighton goalkeeper Benjamin Sesko, Denmark winger Patrick Dorgu, and Morocco full-back Noussair Mazraoui ruled out. Sesko's absence is due to a re-aggravated shin injury, while Dorgu left Denmark's camp due to a non-contact issue that has sidelined him for several weeks. Mazraoui's injury is a result of a collision during Morocco's African Cup qualifier, causing concern for United's defense. On a brighter note, Carrick confirmed that Marcus Rashford and Kobbie Mainoo, who had previously pulled out of the England squad, will be available for selection. Additionally, Amad Diallo, who has been sidelined by a pre-season injury, is expected to return to action, and Carlos Baleba, the new summer signing, is also improving after recovering from an ankle ligament setback.",
