Ghana midfielder Jeffrey Schlupp made an injury return in Crystal Palace’s defeat to Manchester United on Thursday night.
Schlupp was making his first appearance since December last year after picking an injury in Palace’s 1-0 win over Watford before the coronavirus break.
He returned briefly from injury but suffered another setback when the EPL resumed and had to be out for some few weeks more.

The Red Devils took the lead right at the stroke of half time through English forward Marcus Rashford.

French forward Anthony Martial then put the game beyond Crystal Palace after scoring with 12 minutes left.
