Lisandro Martinez's Injury Status Uncertain; Frequent Absences Raise Concerns at Manchester United
According to The Sun's Manchester United correspondent Samuel Luckhurst, the injury situation of Lisandro Martinez remains unclear after he appeared to injure his right thigh during Argentina's World Cup final loss. The 28-year-old defender received a yellow card for a tactical foul, then clutched his thigh and eventually went down. Manchester United's medical team has not yet formulated a recovery plan, and Martinez is entitled to a mandatory three-week holiday. The club expects him back during a training camp in Dublin starting August 8. Since joining Manchester United in July 2022, Martinez has suffered multiple long-term injuries including a fractured metatarsal, knee injury, calf issues, and an ACL tear, missing a total of 92 games for the club in four seasons. He has made 110 appearances, and his contract expires next year, though United is expected to trigger a one-year extension option.
