Manchester United’s injury woes seem to be never ending and now another name could possibly have been added with Andre Onana a new concern.

Andre Onana is back in the international fold and was starting for Cameroon as they took on Mauritius in a World Cup qualifier on Friday night. Onana kept a clean sheet however didn’t manage to last the entire game.

He saw his night end in the 81st minute according to FotMob as he was suspected to be injured and was then seen in pain while leaving the field. This will be the last thing Erik ten Hag would have wanted to see given how Onana has been finding form of late.

According to Actu Cameroon, Onana had an issue with his adductors which caused the early substitution. He will now face medical examinations to determine the true nature of his injury.

The potential absence of £200k-a-week star Onana for Manchester United could now see summer signing Altay Bayindir make his debut against Everton next Sunday.

Marcus Rashford potentially injured too?

Another worry for Ten Hag after Friday’s international fixtures would be Marcus Rashford who was withdrawn through potential injury after colliding with Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Despite looking worrying, it does seem that Rashford will be okay as Gareth Southgate explained following the game as per Fabrizio Romano.

“I think he’s probably okay. We just thought given the nature of the collision, it was a chance to get Cole into the game. I haven’t assessed too much but I think Marcus was okay when he came off”.

Unlike Onana, Rashford probably won’t face time out however some might argue he needs a period on the bench anyway.

How many injuries do Man United have?

If Onana is injured he will join a long list of players currently out of action for United.

Lisandro Martinez and Jonny Evans are both absent at centre-half currently while Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia remain out at left-back.

Casemiro is injured in midfield, and was recently joined by Christian Eriksen who has missed this international break through injury.

Amad Diallo is yet to return, while Rasmus Hojlund is also carrying an injury which prevented him from featuring for Denmark.
