'Several weeks': Ruben Amorim confirms big Man Utd injury blow — 'Several weeks': Ruben Amorim

The Red Devils bowed out of the Carabao Cup on Thursday night following a 4-3 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in the quarter-final stage.

United will be aiming to make amends by beating the Cherries this weekend and ahead of the game, Amorim has confirmed a fresh long-term injury.

Mason Mount was substituted early in the Manchester derby last weekend and the manager has now confirmed that he could be out for some time.

He said: "Several weeks. I don't know the exact date, but it's going to be for long. And that’s it, it's part of football and you continue."

The news is a huge setback for the Red Devils, considering the former Chelsea man is perfectly suited for the 3-4-3 formation under Amorim.

Mount played his best football as an inverted forward under manager Thomas Tuchel , but he has yet to replicate the same for the Red Devils.
