Manchester United were handed extra injury concerns last night when Andre Onana was forced off after 81 minutes in Cameroon’s World Cup qualifier against Mauritius.
Luckily for Cameroon, they won 3-0 but not without Onana picking up a knock.
That comes as a huge blow to Manchester United because Erik ten Hag already had nine players out due to injuries and illness prior to the international break. It doesn’t bode well for the busy festive period that awaits Ten Hag’s side.
Cameroon’s victory was overshadowed by the exit of Onana, who was replaced by Fabrice Ondoa after sustaining a knock.
According to Actu Cameroun, Onana sustained an adductor injury which will raise concerns among United fans.
Onana will have to undergo medical examinations to determine the exact nature of his injury as well as the duration of his unavailability.
United signed Altay Bayindir in the summer to come in as Onana’s back-up and this could mean he will make his debut after the international break in the Premier League against Everton. The Turkey international, 25, is expected to start against Germany today.
Could the internationals get any worse for United?
