Manchester United have confirmed that Patrick Dorgu will be sidelined for around ten weeks after further assessment of an injury picked up in recent training.
The Diagnosis
Club medical staff say the layoff is precautionary but necessary, with the ten-week estimate giving the defender time to fully recover rather than risk a longer-term setback by returning too early.
Impact on the Squad
The absence leaves the coaching staff with a selection headache in defence, and it’s likely other squad members will be asked to cover in the meantime. United will provide further updates on Dorgu’s recovery as his rehabilitation progresses.
