Manchester United stars Rasmus Hojlund and Christian Eriksen have been dealt a spell on the sidelines after sustaining injuries over the weekend.
The pair were unable to see out the Red Devils’ 1-0 win over Luton Town; Eriksen appeared to twist his knee and was replaced in the 40th minute by Mason Mount, while Hojlund went down twice clutching his hamstring before eventually being substituted for Anthony Martial.
Post-match, Erik ten Hag confirmed that they would need to be assessed to determine the severity of their issues and today, it was announced that the players had withdrawn from international duty with Denmark for their upcoming Euro 2024 qualifiers.

Now, it has been reported (via Andy Mitten) that the pair will be out of action for a short while. Eriksen will be unavailable for around a month with a knee injury and Hojlund will be ruled out with muscle strain, though the club hope that he will be back before the end of November.
United’s next match after the break is against Everton on November 26 at Goodison Park before a return to Champions League affairs on November 29 with a group-stage clash away at Galatasaray.
For reference of just how dire United’s injury situation has been this season, take a look at the picture below.
