How well do you know Manchester United's Leny Yoro?
Leny Yoro, Manchester United’s young centre-back, has been making steady progress in his recovery from a foot injury sustained during preseason.
The injury, which occurred in a match against Arsenal during the club's U.S. tour, required surgery and has kept the 18-year-old out since the start of the English Premier League season.
The €62 million summer signing from Lille had been expected to bring defensive solidity to United’s backline, but his absence was a
blow to manager Erik ten Hag’s plans.
Yoro has shared that his operation was successful and is now focusing on rehabilitation, expressing optimism about returning stronger.
