Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has confirmed a fresh injury blow ahead of the Premier League clash against Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Red Devils started their top-flight campaign last week with a 1-0 win over Fulham. Joshua Zirkzee scored the winner off the bench.

They will be eyeing another victory at the Amex Stadium and ahead of the game, Ten Hag has confirmed the absence of defender Victor Lindelof.

Lindelof was missing from the opening game with an undefined injury and he was later on spotted on crutches and walking with a protective boot.

When pressed on this, Ten said: “No confusion, he has an issue on his toe, hopefully he can return quickly but not available for the weekend.”

Alongside the Swede, Leny Yoro, Tyrell Malacia, Luke Shaw and Rasmus Hojlund will be sidelined for the trip to the South Coast on Saturday.

Brighton have been tough opponents for the Red Devils and they have suffered four defeats to the Seagulls in the last five league outings.
