Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko monitored ahead of Sunderland game after painful injury
The shin injury Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko sustained against Liverpool yesterday was quite painful, according to the Sun. The Man United star was shoved off the Old Trafford pitch by Ibrahima Konate in the first-half, colliding into the advertising hoarding where the drop is cushioned by layers of AstroTurf. The Red Devils will continue to assess and monitor Sesko’s injury before deciding whether he is fit to face Sunderland at Stadium of Light next Saturday.
Man United manager Michael Carrick confirmed after the game that the Slovenian international had been carrying a bit of a shin problem for some time. It appears the injury has now been aggravated and he could miss out on the trip to the North East. The Red Devils have already qualified for next season’s Champions League following Sunday’s 3-2 victory over Liverpool. They are now looking to finish third and a win over the Black Cats could be enough if both the Reds and Aston Villa drop points in their next games.
