Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has expressed full support for Luke Shaw after the defender suffered a hamstring injury that has sidelined him for several weeks.
Shaw, who has yet to start a game this season, was gradually returning to action following a calf injury that kept him out for over three months. The new setback, however, has left the 29-year-old “devastated.”
Shaw’s Determined Comeback Efforts Praised
Amorim commended Shaw’s dedication during his recovery, highlighting his work ethic both in the gym and on the pitch. The manager described Shaw as a “top player” who remains vital for both club and country.
Amorim emphasized that the club would continue to support Shaw through his recovery, despite potential plans to strengthen the left-back position next summer due to ongoing injury concerns.
United Prepare for Nottingham Forest Without Key Players
As Shaw faces an extended absence, Manchester United are set to welcome back Kobbie Mainoo and Lisandro Martinez from suspension for their clash against Nottingham Forest. However, Shaw is expected to miss the busy festive period, further complicating Amorim’s defensive options.
