Patrick Dorgu set to be sidelined for number of weeks for Man Utd

Patrick Dorgu is set to be sidelined for a number of weeks for Manchester United due to a hamstring injury.

The 21-year-old Denmark international limped off late on in Sunday’s 3-2 Premier League win at Arsenal, having scored a sensational goal to put United 2-1 ahead.

Some reports suggested Dorgu could be out for 10 weeks, but sources close to the club stressed that the timescales were unclear at this stage and that the injury was still being assessed.

United will seek to continue their excellent start under interim head coach Michael Carrick when they face Fulham at Old Trafford on Sunday.

A protest against the club’s owners – including for the first time towards Sir Jim Ratcliffe as well as the Glazers – is set to take place beforehand.

A spokesperson for the supporters’ group organising the protest, The 1958, said: “Recent results are down to Michael Carrick and the players and they have come in spite of our inept ownership, not because of it.

“This club continues to fumble from one calamity to the next.

“Fans should not be fooled by two good results. We have been here too many times before.

“Our protest has never been about performances on the pitch. Not now and not once in the last 21 years. We are judging a dysfunctional ownership model that has repeatedly failed Manchester United.
