Manchester United manager has given an update on the injury situation ahead of the pre-season friendly against Liverpool (August 3). With strikers Marcus Rashford and Antony likely to be sidelined. With Leni Yoro and Rasmus Hojlund both out for a long time.

The £52m centre-back was injured in last weekend’s 2-1 defeat at Arsenal in normal time during the United States tour.  UFABET

He was pictured wearing a protective boot on his left foot and using a cane to walk. The official website recently confirmed that he will be resting for 3 months. As previously reported. 

Next up, Hoylund, who scored against the Gunners in the 16th minute with a hamstring injury was forced off the pitch.

The recovery timeframe is 6 weeks. The soonest it will be possible to start the new season is against Southampton (September 14). 

And then in the midweek match where they beat Real Betis 3-2. Rashford was seen with an ankle injury and Antony was seen walking off the field in frustration. Even though he was a substitute and was taken off an hour into the game. They also have physical problems. 

“We have to wait and see,” the official website said about the two forwards. 

“We certainly don’t want to take any risks. It’s the final game of the US tour, and the next week is a new calendar week with a big game coming up (the Community Shield against Man City on August 10).” 

“This is just 24 hours after the game against Betis.” 

“We will have a final assessment and see if they are ready for Saturday’s game against Liverpool.” 

In addition to the two forwards. Manchester United may not use midfielder Scott McTominay , who has been linked with Fulham, and right-back Aaron Wan – Bissaka, a target for West Ham.
