Alejandro Garnacho confirms extent of injury at Man Utd in cruel double blow

Alejandro Granacho is facing up to several weeks out with an injury picked up in Manchester United's goalless draw with Southampton.

Garnacho came on in the second-half of Sunday's stalemate but had to be substituted after sustaining the injury in a challenge from Saints defender Kyle Walker-Peters. United have not confirmed how long the injury will keep Garnacho out for, but the Argentina winger confirmed he will miss their next two games, as well as the upcoming international break.

The 18-year-old was primed for his first appearance for the world champions, after deciding on his international allegiances earlier this month. Garnacho is eligible for both Argentina and Spain, having been born in Madrid to an Argentine mother.
