After Lisandro Martinez and Luke Shaw, came Rasmus Hojlund, who retired due to injury.
On the night of February 23, the Manchester United homepage announced that Rasmus Hojlund was injured and had to miss 2 to 3 weeks: “Hojlund cannot play against Fulham this weekend due to muscle-related problems. Striker born in 2003 and planning to take a break for more than 20 days”.
Hojlund will miss the match against Fulham on February 24, then continue to miss the match against Nottingham in the 5th round of the FA Cup on February 29, and even the Manchester derby on March 3.
This is data for Red Devils fans, because Hojlund is the player with the highest performance in coach Erik ten Hag’s squad. The Danish runner is on a streak of 6 consecutive rounds scored in the English Premier League. At this time, MU can only rely on Marcus Rashford, because Anthony Martial cannot return to work and has just been on the operating table.
Just one day earlier, MU fans received news that Luke Shaw was out of action until the end of the season. The Old Trafford team no longer has a left back, Tyrell Malacia is also treating an injury. Another pillar of the Red Devils, Lisandro Martinez, must also be out of action until the end of March due to a torn tendon in his knee.
After a series of impressive matches (5 wins, 1 draw), MU is in danger of returning to a poor state in terms of personnel starting performance. The injuries of the trio Hojlund, Shaw, and Martinez will directly affect the playing ability of the red half of Manchester, and may even ruin their ambition to enter the top 4, because this is already a key stage of the season. .
