MANCHESTER UNITED fans are concerned after learning TWO more stars have withdrawn from international duty due to injuries.
Kobbie Mainoo had already pulled out of the England squad on Monday due to a fitness issue after he was replaced by Casemiro in the 85th minute during the goalless draw with Aston Villa.
But now he has been joined by two Red Devils players who also started the stalemate at Villa Park on Sunday.
Right-back Noussair Mazraoui has withdrawn from the Morocco squad after being replaced by Victor Lindelof at half-time on the weekend.
And Alejandro Garnacho has pulled out of Argentinian duty with an injury.
That is despite having played the full 90 minutes against Villa.
According to Manchester Evening News, he has been managing a knee injury for the last week – the reason behind him coming off the bench in the 3-3 draw with Porto.
The fitness blows are the latest concern for manager Erik ten Hag as pressure grows following Man Utd’s worst ever start to a Premier League season.
Reacting to the news, one fan replied: “Ten Hag has injured half of his players while achieving draws only”.
Another added: “Gutting”.
Mainoo, Mazraoui and Garnacho join Harry Maguire as fresh injury worries after the England centre-back limped off during the Villa draw.
Leny Yoro, Luke Shaw, Mason Mount and Tyrell Malacia are also sidelined.
It comes as Man Utd bosses prepare to meet for crunch talks in London on Tuesday amid reports linking ex-Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel with replacing Ten Hag. (www.thesun.co.uk)
