Manchester United’s Mason Mount is set for a prolonged spell on the sidelines after suffering a new injury blow, adding to his challenging start with the club. The midfielder, signed for £55 million from Chelsea in the summer, is yet to score for United and has faced difficulties in settling at Old Trafford.
Mount’s struggles include a series of injury setbacks, with the latest being a calf problem ahead of United’s upcoming match against Everton. This fresh issue is expected to keep the 24-year-old out of action for several weeks, potentially sidelining him for crucial upcoming fixtures, including the Champions League clash with Galatasaray and matches against Newcastle and Chelsea.
The setback compounds the selection challenges for United manager Erik ten Hag, who is already dealing with an injury crisis featuring Casemiro, Lisandro Martinez, Christian Eriksen, Amad Diallo, and Tyrell Malacia. Rasmus Hojlund and Jonny Evans are doubtful for the Everton clash, and Marcus Rashford is suspended for the Galatasaray trip.
Mount’s struggles at United have drawn attention, with former player Dimitar Berbatov expressing the need for him to step up and showcase the quality he exhibited during his time at Chelsea. The pressure is mounting on Mount to justify his high transfer fee and meet the expectations associated with his move to Old Trafford.
