Due to a foot injury sustained in a friendly match, the Frenchman will not make his debut for his new club until November
Defender Manchester United Leni Yoro successfully underwent surgery for a foot injury.
The player will begin his recovery immediately. The club hopes that the 18-year-old newcomer will be able to take to the field in three months.
Thus, the French talent will most likely debut for MU no earlier than November. Let us recall that Yoro only half a month ago moved to the English club from Lille for 62 million euros, signing a contract until June 2029.
On July 28, Leni suffered a foot injury in a pre-season friendly match against Arsenal (1:2). In the same match, Manchester United striker Rasmus Hojlund, who had already opened the scoring, was also injured – the Dane is out for approximately six weeks.
Yoro played 44 matches for Lille in all competitions last season, scoring three goals. In March, the defender made his debut for the France U-23 team.
Manchester United finished eighth in the Premier League and won the FA Cup. The Red Devils will host Fulham in the first round of the new season on August 16.
