Man Utd’s injury crisis deepens as PSG friendly takes toll

Manchester United’s pre-season meeting with Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday was marred by two injury worries, with the growing crisis forcing the club to turn to a former non-league star.

According to Mirror Football, the makeshift selection came as a direct result of the injuries sustained during the match, leaving the coaching staff with limited options in attack.

The report did not disclose the names of the two players affected, but the timing is far from ideal as United continue their preparations for the upcoming campaign.

The former non-league player, who has worked his way up the football pyramid, was given an unexpected opportunity to feature prominently against a top European side.

Despite the disrupted line-up, United will be hoping the injuries are minor and that their young and emerging talents can step up when needed. For now, fans can catch up with all the action from the friendly via the highlights on this site.
