EPL: Schmeichel Reveals Fresh Massive Problem at Man United

On Sunday, Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes pulled up with a soft-tissue hamstring problem at half-time of the 2-1 loss at Aston Villa, with reports suggest he could be out for around a month, risking the January 17, 2025, derby.
Kobbie Mainoo's planned loan move has been halted as Bruno Fernandes's injury all but killed off his hopes of leaving Manchester United next month and Ruben Amorim is unlikely to allow it.
Statistics show Mainoo has only 221 minutes this season, and with him injured and Casemiro suspended, Amorim deployed a central defender alongside Manuel Ugarte while Gary Neville suggested Lisandro Martinez as an emergency midfield option.
Fernandes and Mainoo are expected to miss the December 26 Newcastle United match, and with AFCON absences, Amorim must consider Mason Mount alongside Casemiro.
The congested fixture list, including December 26 and January 17, increases pressure while Amorim insists January signings will be avoided and Fernandes might return around the turn of the year.
