Man United’s new signing Leny Yoro picked up an injury in the Red Devils’ pre-season clash with Arsenal over the weekend and it is being reported that the defender’s issue could be serious.
The 18-year-old needed to be taken off after 35 minutes which was a huge blow for Erik ten Hag, especially when considering that Rasmus Hojlund was substituted just 20 minutes earlier.

The journalist hints that the youngster’s injury could be serious but it will not be made known to the public until Erik ten Hag takes part in his next press conference on Thursday.
Regarding the fitness of Hojlund, Reddy states that there are no concerns around the Danish striker as everything looks ok, with the 21-year-old expected to return to action soon.
This will come as good news for Ten Hag as the Dutch coach will be sweating over the fitness of Yoro having just signed the centre-back to help deal with the issues he had in that position last term.
