In the latest update from Old Trafford, it appears that Manchester United is facing yet more injury concerns ahead of their crucial upcoming matches. This news comes as a blow to the club, who have already been dealing with a number of key players on the sidelines.
Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirmed the worrying news, stating, “We have a few players who are carrying knocks and we will have to assess them over the coming days. It’s a difficult situation, especially with the busy schedule we have ahead of us.”
One player who is definitely ruled out for the foreseeable future is star midfielder Paul Pogba, who is set to undergo surgery on his troublesome ankle. This comes as a major setback for United, as Pogba has been in fine form in recent weeks.
Speaking on Pogba’s injury, Solskjaer said, “It’s disappointing to lose a player of Paul’s quality, but we have to deal with it and find a way to cope in his absence. It’s a big blow for us, but we have other players who can step up and fill the void.”
In addition to Pogba’s absence, United also have concerns over the fitness of defenders Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw, who both picked up knocks in their recent matches. Solskjaer will have to wait for further assessments before determining their availability for the next game.
Despite the setbacks, Solskjaer remains optimistic about his team’s chances moving forward. He said, “We have a strong squad and I have full confidence in the players we have available. We will continue to work hard and do everything we can to overcome these injury concerns.”
As the season enters a crucial stage, United will be hoping to quickly resolve their injury issues and get their key players back on the field. With important matches coming up in the league and cup competitions, Solskjaer will be relying on his squad depth to navigate through this challenging period.
