Leny Yoro has reportedly identified Man United’s Premier League game against Arsenal later this year as the ideal time to return from injury.
The French defender joined the Red Devils in the summer from Lille for a reported £59 million.
Despite being thrown straight into the action in pre-season, the 18-year-old suffered a major setback after picking up an injury against Arsenal in the United States.

However, according to a recent report from GiveMeSport, looking to make his long-awaited competitive debut, Yoro is targeting his side’s first Premier League fixture against the same opponents he was injured against as the right time to return.

The outlet claims the centre-back has ‘told friends and teammates’ he is ‘desperate’ to be involved when United travel to the Emirates on 3 December and has ‘set himself the personal target’ to be fit enough in time.
