Setback For Man United As Rasmus Højlund Joins List Of Injured Players

In a season filled with ups and downs for Manchester United, the latest setback comes in the form of a muscle injury to young striker Rasmus Højlund.

The 21-year-old Dane, who has been in excellent form with six goals in the last six games, is set to be sidelined for the next 2-3 weeks.

This news couldn’t have come at a worse time for the Red Devils as they gear up for an important period in their fight for a top-four finish in the Premier League.

Højlund’s absence adds to an already long injury list for Manchester United, with the likes of Luke Shaw, Anthony Martial, and Lisandro Martinez also on the sideline.

The timing of these injuries couldn’t be more unfortunate, with the Manchester derby against City on the 3rd of March.

The absence of influential players like Højlund and Shaw will undoubtedly be felt in such an important fixture, where every point matters in the race for Champions League qualification.
