Leny Yoro spotted on crutches as Man Utd fear long lay-off for £52m new signing

Manchester United continued their tour of the United States, where they recently faced Arsenal and were defeated 2-1. Beyond the defeat, the match left the bad news of the injury of Leny Yoro, who had to retire after 35 minutes with obvious signs of pain.

Although Erik ten Hag had played down the situation, the latest information about the recent signing of the Red Devils suggests that the injury problems of the young center-back may be more serious than first thought.

In recent hours, Yoro has been seen on crutches and wearing a protective boot on his left leg. The former Lille player avoided putting his foot on the ground at all times in the video shared by X user - social network formerly known as Twitter - Ryan Deeb at UCLA.

According to this source, the recent Manchester United signing remained at the Acosta Athletic Training Complex during the session and did not join the rest of the squad on the pitch. At least, the Red Devils, which has not given further details of his situation, is keeping him with the rest of the squad and has not sent him home.

Erik ten Hag is expected to comment further on the player's situation at Thursday's press conference, but the club's entourage already fears that Leny Yoro may have a fracture of some severity in his left foot.
