Manchester United have been hit with another injury scare as Harry Maguire and Manchester City’s Kyle Walker both leave the England camp due to fitness concerns. Maguire, who was withdrawn during England’s defeat to Brazil, underwent a scan revealing his unavailability for the upcoming friendly against Belgium.
Meanwhile, Walker, who also suffered a hamstring issue during the same match, is expected to miss out on England’s final game before the Euros squad announcement. These setbacks add to United’s worries ahead of their upcoming fixtures, with Maguire’s recent return from injury raising further concerns about his fitness. The absence of key players like Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez, and Tyrell Malacia compounds the defensive issues for United.
With both Maguire and Walker facing uncertain recoveries, manager Erik ten Hag faces challenges in managing the team’s run-in, starting with a crucial Premier League clash against Brentford. Despite the setbacks, England manager Gareth Southgate still has options for the Belgium friendly, with players like Jordan Henderson and Cole Palmer back in contention after returning to training.
