Man United Assess Benjamin Sesko After Shin Injury Aggravated in Liverpool Win

The club will decide his availability for the trip to Sunderland after medical checks.

Overview

  • The striker was taken off at half-time after a shoulder-to-shoulder with Ibrahima Konate sent him into the advertising boards.
  • Manager Michael Carrick said the collision struck the area of a long-standing shin problem that Sesko has carried for some time.
  • United are monitoring the injury and have not disclosed a diagnosis or recovery timeline.
  • Sesko had scored earlier in the match for his 11th Premier League goal of the season in a run of improved form under Carrick.
  • United have secured a Champions League place and now must balance his recovery with the final three league games as they aim to finish third.
