Manchester United are once again sick with injuries as they suffered a double injury less than two weeks before the start of the new season.
After Rasmus Højlund and new arrival Leny Yoro limped off in United’s pre-season friendly against Arsenal at the weekend, the Old Trafford club hoped the injuries would not be too serious.
Unfortunately for Erik ten Hag, The Times’ Paul Hirst has reported that Yoro will miss up to three months with an alleged foot injury, while Højlund will miss six weeks with a hamstring problem.
Yoro was away for 3 months. Højlund out for 6 weeks. Not ideal for utd.

United suffered serious injury problems last season, losing a litany of first-team players for much of the campaign.
Ten Hag’s men will face Manchester City in the FA Community Shield in just 10 days’ time.
