Luke Shaw confirms Manchester United injury setback in message to fans | OneFootball

Long-serving defender only returned from lengthy absence earlier this season

Manchester United left back Luke Shaw said he has suffered another injury setback less than two weeks after returning to action.

The England defender has missed much of this year due to injuries and reports claimed he had picked up another problem during training that may sideline him for weeks.

The 29-year-old, who missed the start of the season due to a calf injury, said in a social media post on Tuesday that he had had a small setback.

Shaw, who was previously out for nearly four months with a muscle injury he picked up in February, came off the bench during United's 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town on Nov. 24 and made two more substitute appearances after that.

United, who are ninth in the Premier League, visit second-placed Arsenal later on Wednesday.
