Saint-Maximin hasn’t started a league match for United since August due to a niggling hamstring problem but has been limited to two Carabao Cup starts since returning to full fitness.
It is unclear whether or not he will be involved in Tuesday night’s Carabao Cup quarter-final against Leciester City at St James’s Park (8pm kick-off).
