Manchester United have been handed another injury concern after Patrick Dorgu was forced off during Denmark’s Nations League clash with Wales on Sunday.

Dorgu started the Group A4 encounter at Parken Stadium in Copenhagen but lasted less than 30 minutes before appearing to pick up an injury. The Manchester United defender was seen limping before being withdrawn from the game.

The 21-year-old was replaced as Denmark made an early change, leaving Manchester United waiting for further information regarding the severity of the problem.

There is currently no official diagnosis or confirmed recovery timeline for Dorgu. Further assessment by Denmark's medical staff will be required before it becomes clear whether he will be able to continue with the national team during the international break.

The injury is also likely to concern Manchester United, who will be keen to establish whether Dorgu will be available when club football resumes.

Dorgu has become an important option for United since joining the club, capable of operating as a left-back or further forward. Any extended absence would therefore give manager Michael Carrick another selection issue to deal with.

For now, the focus remains on the results of Dorgu’s medical assessment, with more information expected from the Denmark camp.
