Mason Mount’s injury puts Man Utd at a serious disadvantage making their match against Liverpool even more difficult, good news for Liverpool fans.
Mason Mount’s injury has ruled him out of Manchester United’s vital Premier League match against Liverpool the club have confirmed a major setback.
After spending £60 million to join United from Chelsea last summer the midfield player hurt his hamstring during last week’s 2-1 loss to Brighton.
United who are already managing a number of fitness issues involving important players like Leny Yoro Rasmus Hojlund and Luke Shaw is devastated by this injury.

Mount’s injury would keep him out for several weeks United noted in an official statement which acknowledged the seriousness of the situation.
On social media Mount himself vented his annoyance by posting,
“During the last game I picked up a minor muscle issue.
I’ve had it checked and it looks like I’ll be out for a few games. Leading up to and during pre-season, I worked hard to get my fitness back to where it needs to be and I felt re-energised, sharp and ready.
I wanted you to hear it directly from me how frustrated I am, as I expect you are too. I will do everything possible to be back in the best shape and help the team.”
Will Erik ten Hag be able to find a way out of this game without his midfield star? will Arne Slot plan to exploit this handicap against their Arch-nemesis?
Fans of football from all around the globe will be eagerly watching to see how this turns out on the pitch for both the giants of the Premier League era.
