Aaron Wan-Bissaka is the most recent player to join those being treated for injuries at Man United.
When asked about injuries during Manchester United news conferences, Erik ten Hag emphasizes the value of having a team and believes that setbacks are a part of football, yet he must be cursing his luck behind closed doors.
Since the beginning of the season, there has been an injury issue at Old Trafford, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka is the most recent player to be sidelined after suffering an injury when playing as a substitute against Brighton last weekend.
Wan-Bissaka will be sidelined for “several weeks,” it was confirmed on Monday afternoon. The precise length of his absence will depend on the results of a subsequent evaluation.
Wan-Bissaka had started every league game so far this season until being named to the bench against Brighton on Saturday afternoon due to illness in the days prior to the game.
The defenseman has advanced quite well, therefore his departure will be lamented. Fans will be hoping to make it through Wednesday’s game against Bayern Munich without any additional injuries as Sergio Reguilon and Diogo Dalot will continue to start.
There are so many players who are currently unavailable that you could actually start the game with that starting lineup. That team would undoubtedly be capable of finishing higher than some of the Premier League relegation candidates.

Despite the fact that they are not injured, Jadon Sancho and Antony Sancho are not currently eligible for selection. They represent talent worth nearly £160 million, but Brighton’s starting lineup on Saturday was only worth £16.2 million.
Sancho, who was seen at Carrington watching the Under-18s while his teammates prepared for Brighton, might have played his final United game following his public outburst after the Arsenal game. It is not yet known when Antony could return following claims of abuse, which he denies.
Although Ten Hag intimated in his post-match news conference at the weekend that one injured player who shall remain nameless is close to a return, the pair’s absence has led to a crisis at the club, much like the significant number of injuries.
Before two matches this week, Ten Hag was asked if any players could return. “Maybe, maybe one player,” he responded. But I feel that Munich is a little too brief. The players will return the week after I arrive in Burnley.
Since Bayern Munich is one of the favorites to win the Champions League, we must do well there. As I previously stated, we absolutely need character, belief, resilience, and resolve.
The injury situation undoubtedly hasn’t helped United’s season-opening struggles.
