Manchester United Forward Patrick Dorgu is expected to miss several weeks after suffering a hamstring injury during Sunday’s match. 3-2 win over Arsenal.
The 21-year-old scored United’s second goal with a powerful strike from the edge of the area but was forced off late in the game. Interim head coach Michael Carrick initially suggested the problem could be a strain, but it has since emerged as a more serious problem.
Sources suggest the Denmark international is still under evaluation, with no specific return date set yet.
Dorgu has been one of United’s standout performers in recent weeks.
Signed from Lacey 12 months ago as a wing-back, he has flourished in a more advanced role on the left below Carrick and also found the net in the recent win over Manchester City.
Manchester United have eight Premier League Fixtures remain before the March international break, during which Dorgu is expected to join Denmark in World Cup play-off matches.
His absence could open the door for Mathias Cunha to assume a more prominent role.
The Brazilian has started United’s last two matches on the bench but made a decisive impact at the Emirates, scoring the winning goal.
