A new chapter in Manchester United 's dreadful season has been written after it was revealed the Premier League giants spent more than £25million on injured players.
The Red Devils finished a lowly sixth in the Premier League last term as they missed out on qualification for the Champions League. Both Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick were hampered by injuries to key players throughout the campaign as the wheels came off for United.
United were so badly hit by injury issues that they spent a total of £25.7m in salary cost on injured players, according to Premier Injuries. They were the only club in the top-flight to break the £20m mark, with Chelsea the next highest.
