Manchester United defender Luke Shaw has suffered yet another injury setback that will keep him out for a few weeks.
According to United sources, the injury is a new one, rather than a recurrence of a previous problem.
Shaw, 29has made just three substitute appearances this season for United after being sidelined for the club since February through injury.
“It is hurting a lot having to write this as I really thought I had got through my recent struggles and was on a positive path going forward, but unfortunately I’ve had a small setback,” Shaw wrote on social media.
“I’ve been through a lot and had a lot of ups and downs, but this has been my toughest period.
“I’m absolutely devastated and it’s extremely tough to come to terms with reality at this time.
“I understand there’s going to be people frustrated, angry, disappointed and I understand all that. There is no-one feeling that more than me at this moment in time.”
Despite his injury concerns with United, Shaw was named in Gareth Southgate’s squad for Euro 2024, where he made two substitute appearances in the knockout stages before starting in the 2-1 final defeat to Spain.
That was his last competitive appearance before coming off the bench in manager Ruben Amorim’s first game in charge against Ipswich on 24 November.
