Man United fans have been left fuming after Leny Yoro suffered an injury during their pre-season tour of the USA.

United faced Arsenal at the SoFi Stadium in LA, with Mikel Arteta's side securing a 2-1 victory as Ten Hag's side were defeated for the second time in three games this pre-season.

However, the game was overshadowed by Yoro's unexpected injury blow as he was forced to leave the pitch after just 35 minutes.

The game was played on an artificial pitch, which can often lead to an increased risk of injury, and saw both Yoro and Rasmus Holjund limp off with new blows.

Fans are raging at the situation after United suffered a lengthy injury crisis last season which contributed to their struggles in the Premier League.

Man United fans fume after 'ridiculous' Leny Yoro injury update

Yoro arrived at Old Trafford from Lille earlier this summer in a shock deal as the club pipped both Real Madrid and Liverpool to his signature.

However, with just less than two weeks to go until the domestic season kicks off, fans are hoping that he will be cleared to return for the season opener against Fulham.

The frustration at their latest injury blow has begun to boil over on social media with anger aimed towards the club.

I don’t get how and why our players get injured so quick 😫 I can’t deal with this nonsense no more https://t.co/TUPnM8zXDT

Must be something in training to account for this level of injuries
— Matt (@FootballMatt3) July 28, 2024

There has to be something wrong with the training.... players don't just get injured like this it isn't just about luck. Yoro didn't get injured in france? He's a young lad so is hojlund something is not right

Please, we can’t take this anymore. We cannot go another season with every player injured. We deserve a break. https://t.co/Blyd4sj3AB
