Manchester United faced a moment of concern as defender Lisandro Martinez was seen with a bandaged left foot after being substituted during the exhilarating 4-3 victory against Wolves. The Argentine center-back, recently back from a lengthy injury layoff, appeared to injure his foot during the match. After being withdrawn by manager Erik ten Hag, Martinez received immediate treatment in the away dugout, leaving fans anxious about a potential setback.
Martinez, who returned to action two matches ago after a foot injury sidelined him since September, has been a key figure in United’s defensive lineup. His recent injury worries compound the team’s defensive challenges, with Tyrell Malacia and Victor Lindelof already sidelined. The potential setback for Martinez adds to the injury concerns for United, who are also missing players like Anthony Martial, Mason Mount, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
United supporters had hailed Martinez’s return as a positive turning point for the team under Erik ten Hag. The 26-year-old, signed from Ajax last summer, has made 53 appearances for the Red Devils, showcasing his defensive prowess. The extent of Martinez’s injury and its impact on United’s defensive stability remains a point of keen interest for fans and the coaching staff alike.
