Manchester United youngster Ayden Heaven, 18, was stretchered off during his first Premier League start against Leicester after a collision with Patson Daka. Having joined from Arsenal in January for substantial compensation.

Heaven impressed manager Ruben Amorim during a 4-1 Europa League win over Real Sociedad. However, his promising start was cut short at the King Power Stadium when he appeared to roll his ankle, prompting immediate medical attention. Fans expressed their disappointment and concern on social media, with many hoping for the teenager’s swift recovery.

Heaven was initially signed with a future role in mind, but his performances quickly earned him first-team opportunities. His injury adds to United’s growing list of sidelined players, including Lisandro Martinez, Leny Yoro, and Harry Maguire. Despite the setback, United secured a 2-0 win over Leicester, thanks to goals from Rasmus Hojlund and Alejandro Garnacho.
