This weekend saw Manchester United play out to a goalless draw with Aston Villa, with another one of their stars, Harry Maguire, coming off injured.
The defender was taken off at half-time after he was seen limping off the pitch with help of tthe physios.
Now, the centre-back is the latest United star to take to social media to provide an update on his injury.
Alejandro Garnacho provides an update on social media
Already this week, we’ve seen Alejandro Garnacho taking to Instagram to provide his own update for the fans on his injury situation.
The winger was ruled out of playing for the Argentina national squad this international break due to discomforts with his knee.
The Copa America winner said: “I had knee problems in the last two games and I will not be able to be with the national team but I hope to recover to be able to be with them next matchday.”
However, now Maguire appears to have followed in Garnacho’s footsteps by posting his own update of his injury situation.
Harry Maguire takes to social media
Posting an image of him being supported off the pitch by the United staff, Harry Maguire took to his Instagram story, saying: “Frustrated to pick up an injury at the weekend, will be a few weeks on the sideline for me but I’ll come back stronger.”
Although the full extent of the injury is still unknown, Maguire’s post has confirmed the worst, that he will in fact be side-lined for some time.
This injury will be affecting United in more than one way unfortunately. Not only does this mean another centre-back is out injured alongside Leny Yoro, however the club are also desperate to sell Maguire in the January transfer window.
With Maguire’s contract up next summer and The Red Devils having no interest in extending the deal, the club are keen to sell him in January so as to not lose out with the centre-back leaving on a free transfer this summer, especially after spending £80 million on the star.
As Maguire could be missing out on match time over the coming weeks or months, it could significantly affect United’s ability to sell the England international.
