Manchester United: Leny Yoro and Rasmus Hojlund injury latest as Erik ten Hag provides update

Manchester United have injury concerns over Leny Yoro and Rasmus Hojlund after both players were forced off during their pre-season defeat to Arsenal in Los Angeles.

Hojlund felt his hamstring in the first half and new £52million signing Yoro also limped off before half-time.

United now face an anxious wait to discover the full extent of the injuries, with under three weeks until they kick-off the new Premier League season against Fulham on August 16.

Hojlund had given United the lead against Arsenal but was forced off.

Yoro, who only joined from Lille 10 days ago, then went down and needed lengthy treatment before he also had to be substituted.

The injuries are a major worry for United manager Erik ten Hag, whose squad was hit by a huge number of injuries last season.

Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli hit back for Arsenal as United lost 2-1 in the States.

“It is too short [to know about their injuries] and we have to wait over 24 hours, then we will hopefully know more,” said Ten Hag.

“We were careful especially with Leny [Yoro] as he only did 50 per cent of the [training] sessions. He has to come up but let's be positive and see what comes out.”

United defender Jonny Evans said: “Rasmus hinted that it is his hamstring, I am not sure about Leny yet.

“Obviously you do not want any injuries in pre-season. That is one of the biggest things you are trying to avoid. We do not know how bad their injuries are. Hopefully not too bad.”
