Man Utd Injury Update: Lindelof, Hojlund, Shaw, and Yoro – Latest News and Return Dates

Injuries are once again disrupting Manchester United’s plans as Erik ten Hag navigates the early stages of the season. The team, despite these challenges, managed a vital win against Fulham. However, the injury list continues to be a concern, with key players like Victor Lindelof, Rasmus Hojlund, Luke Shaw, and Leny Yoro sidelined. As United prepare for their upcoming fixtures, fans are eager to know when they can expect these stars back on the pitch.

Lindelof’s Uncertain Comeback

Victor Lindelof’s absence has raised alarms within the United camp. Initially, his pre-season injury against Liverpool was deemed minor. However, recent developments suggest otherwise. Over the weekend, Lindelof’s wife posted an image of the Swedish defender on crutches, indicating a more serious issue. With his future at the club also under speculation, his return date remains uncertain, adding to United’s defensive concerns.

Shaw’s Calf Injury Woes

Luke Shaw, a mainstay in United’s defence, has been sidelined since February. Although he featured prominently in England’s run to the Euro 2024 final, the left-back has been ruled out of the early part of the season due to a calf injury picked up during training. The club has confirmed that Shaw will miss the first few weeks, but his return is eagerly anticipated as United look to solidify their backline.

Yoro’s Long Road to Recovery

Leny Yoro, one of United’s promising summer signings, made a strong impression during pre-season but was unfortunately struck by a foot injury in a friendly against Arsenal. After undergoing surgery, the defender is expected to be out for around three months, delaying his competitive debut for the club. His absence is a blow, particularly given the promise he showed in his early appearances.
