Man Utd’s Leny Yoro was forced off at half-time against Arsenal

  • Ruben Amorim delivered an update on the French defender
  • Revealed another could return for upcoming Europa League tie

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim offered two encouraging injury updates. After his side battled out a 1-1 draw with Arsenal on Sunday afternoon.

The Portuguese boss not only play down concerns over the fitness of Leny Yoro. Who was forced off at half-time against the Gunners. But revealed that United could also welcome Manuel Ugarte back for Thursday’s crucial Europa League tie against Real Sociedad.

Yoro was part of a United backline. Which managed to weather a first-half assault from Arsenal at Old Trafford. The Gunners limited their hosts to 33% possession and just one off-target shot before giving away a free-kick on the edge of the box in stoppage time. Bruno Fernandes, United’s familiar beacon of hope, beat David Raya from 25 yards to give the Red Devils a shock 1-0 lead.

Amorim was forced to replace Yoro เว็บพนันออนไลน์ UFABET สมัครง่าย โปรโมชั่นมากมาย with Ayden Heaven at the interval. “Leny has something in his foot,” the Portuguese boss explained. The French centre-back missed the first four months of the season. After sustaining a foot injury during a pre-season friendly, requiring surgery. However, Amorim wasn’t fretting over a long-term absence. “I think we will see if he is available for Thursday.”

United’s newly defiant head coach was also asked about the glut of injured players.

Who missed Sunday’s stalemate. The Red Devils were without ten senior figures and named a bench with no player older than 22.

However, heading into the second leg of their Europa League last 16 tie against Real Sociedad, Amorim hinted at a return for one of his midfield enforcers.
