"Manchester United's Patrick Dorgu is likely to be out for a number of weeks after injuring his hamstring during Sunday's 3-2 win at Arsenal. The 21-year-old, who lashed in United's second goal from the edge of the box, limped off in the closing stages of the match with what interim head coach Michael Carrick hoped was cramp. It is more significant than that but sources say the Denmark international is still being assessed and the timescale for his absence is not clear."
"The in-form Dorgu, who joined United as a wing-back from Italian club Lecce 12 months ago, has excelled in an advanced left-sided attacking role under Carrick, and also scored in the previous win over Manchester City. United have eight Premier League games before the March international break, when Dorgu is expected to be involved for Denmark in the World Cup play-offs."
Patrick Dorgu is likely to be sidelined for a number of weeks after injuring his hamstring during Manchester United's 3-2 win at Arsenal. The 21-year-old lashed in United's second goal but limped off late with what Michael Carrick initially hoped was cramp. The injury is more significant and the Denmark international is still being assessed, with the timescale for his absence unclear. Dorgu joined United from Lecce 12 months ago and has excelled in an advanced left-sided attacking role under Carrick, also scoring in the win over Manchester City. United have eight Premier League games before the March international break when he is expected to be involved for Denmark in the World Cup play-offs. His absence could open up a greater role for Matheus Cunha.
