Patrick Dorgu injury update will delight United fans
Manchester United are set to receive a welcome boost ahead of their crucial Premier League encounter against Liverpool on May 3.
The Red Devils have missed an out-and-out left winger this season, with Matheus Cunha forced to play there in the absence of senior options.
When Michael Carrick was appointed as caretaker head coach, he opted to play Patrick Dorgu in that position.
Former boss Ruben Amorim saw the Dane more as a wingback than a winger, but the move to play the 21-year-old in an advanced role worked wonders.
He scored in consecutive games, against league leaders Manchester City and second-placed Arsenal, as the 20-time English league champions won both contests.
However, the former Lecce star suffered a hamstring injury during the game at the Emirates, which has kept him sidelined for 10 games.
Patrick Dorgu is expected to return to the squad, providing a much-needed boost for Manchester United.
Manchester United has struggled, often relying on Matheus Cunha to fill the left winger position in the absence of senior players.
Manchester United's next match against Liverpool is scheduled for May 3.

âHowever, the outing at the Emirates Stadium ended on a sour note as he pulled his hamstring while chasing after a ball over the top and was ruled out for at least ten weeks and has missed every game since.

âManchester United face a tough Brentford side on Monday, 27 April. While itâs not impossible for Dorgu to return for this game, itâs considered less likely by those familiar with the situation.â
