Manchester United’s season has not even started yet and they have already been dealt a major blow with two of their players out with lengthy injuries.
The Red Devils suffered the injuries to new defensive signing Leny Yoro and striker Rasmus Hojlund in their preseason match against Arsenal in the United States of America.
On Saturday, the young Man United duo limped off against the Gunners in the first half and now they will be out for a long period.
According to Man United, as reported by journalist Fabrizio Romano, Yoro has suffered a fractured metatarsal in his left foot while Hojlund has suffered a hamstring strain.
The French defender is expected to be out for three months while the Denmark international striker will miss six weeks of action.
