Alejandro Garnacho injury 'worse than expected' as Man Utd youngster suffers blow

Manchester United have been rocked by the news that the injury Alejandro Garnacho sustained in Sunday's stalemate with Southampton is worse than initially feared.

Garnacho, 18, has made a big impression after breaking into the first-team picture under Erik ten Hag this season and even earned his first senior international call-up for Argentina last week.

The talented teenager could be seen struggling after he was on the receiving end of a heavy tackle from Kyle Walker-Peters during United's drab 0-0 draw with the Saints at the weekend. And it appears as though Garnacho, who was seen leaving Old Trafford on crutches, could be set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines as a result of the incident.
