Yoro fears
Leny Yoro has undergone surgery on a metatarsal injury that will keep him out for three months.
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag’s worst fears over his new £52million centre-half were confirmed following the op, which took place after the club’s return from their US tour.
Yoro, 18, suffered the damage in only his second appearance for his new club – a 2-1 friendly defeat to Arsenal in Los Angeles.
United have confirmed the French Under-21s star will be missing until November, his absence bringing back Ten Hag’s nightmares of last season.
The club are now certain to accelerate their pursuit of Bayern Munich’s Matthijs de Ligt.
