Manchester United’s star player, Bruno Fernandes, has been spotted wearing a protective boot ahead of his team’s upcoming match against Tottenham.
Fernandes, who picked up an injury during United’s FA Cup semi-final victory over Brighton on Sunday, was seen wearing the protective boot in a recent Instagram post by his wife, Ana Pinho.
The photo shows the midfielder lying on a sofa with his injured foot propped up on pillows and holding a mug in his hand.
This news is a concern for United fans, as they face an important match against Tottenham on Thursday that could determine their chances of securing a top-four position.
Tottenham, who have one of the best home records in the Premier League, have won 11 out of their 16 home games, despite their recent 6-1 defeat to Newcastle.
United has already lost key players Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane to injury, so the absence of Fernandes could be another blow to the team’s chances
