Manchester United\u00a0were dealt a double blow during their friendly against\u00a0Arsenal\u00a0with both\u00a0Rasmus H\u00f8jlund\u00a0and\u00a0Leny Yoro\u00a0forced off with injuries.<\/p>\n

H\u00f8jlund and Yoro were both substituted in the first half as Arsenal beat United 2-1 in front of 62,486 fans at SoFi Stadium.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the last thing manager Erik ten Hag will have wanted to see after last season was plagued by injury problems which contributed to an eighth-place finish in the\u00a0Premier League.<\/p>\n

H\u00f8jlund, having scored United\u2019s opening goal, lasted just 13 minutes before going down with what looked like a muscle problem.<\/p>\n

The striker, playing in his first preseason game after competing at Euro 2024 with\u00a0Denmark, was able to walk off the pitch but headed straight down the tunnel.<\/p>\n

Yoro, a \u00a352 million summer signing from\u00a0Lille, was next to pick up an injury and was substituted midway through the first half. The 18-year-old was visibly limping as he headed towards the dressing room.<\/p>\n

Another centre-back,\u00a0Victor Lindel\u00f6f, missed the game because of injury after also missing the win over Rangers ahead of the U.S. tour.<\/p>\n

United\u2019s mounting injury problems came just a day after Ten Hag warned that the issues which affected last season could be repeated.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fixture list, the load on the players is so high,\u201d Ten Hag told a news conference on Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not the only team with so many injuries. Across the Premier League, many teams with a lot of injuries. We were not even the worst.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we had was bad luck, we had them all at the end of the season. The pressure on players is so immense and this season it\u2019s getting even worse because of the new format in Europe. It will happen [again].\u201d<\/p>
