More heartbreak for Ten Hag as Manchester Unted star set to miss 8 weeks with injury
Manchester United left-back Luke Shaw is expected to be sidelined for 6-8 weeks after suffering a setback in his recovery.
Shaw is yet to feature this season after suffering a muscle injury sustained during England's Euro 2024 campaign.

Luke Shaw is expected to be out for another 6-8 weeks. He picked up another injury on the muscles of the leg he broken couple of years ago.

The issue is reportedly linked to the leg break he suffered a couple of years ago, casting significant doubts over his long-term career.
This is particularly disappointing for manager Erik ten Hag, who has been forced to deploy Diogo Dalot at left-back in Shaw's absence, with Tyrell Malacia also sidelined with injury.
The Red Devils have struggled to find consistency, securing just three wins from eight games, and reports suggest he has only two games to save his job - a trip to face Portuguese giants FC Porto, followed by a difficult fixture against Aston Villa.
