In a challenging pre-season encounter, Manchester United faced a tough 2-1 loss against Arsenal at SoFi Stadium, marred by injuries to two key players.

Rasmus Højlund and Leny Yoro were both forced to leave the field due to injuries, casting a shadow over the team’s performance.

Højlund, who had given United an early lead with his goal, experienced a muscle issue just 13 minutes into the game.

Despite his effort to continue, he was unable to continue and walked off the pitch before heading straight to the tunnel for further evaluation.

Similarly, Leny Yoro, who had recently been signed from Lille for £52 million, was also withdrawn from the match midway through the first half.

The 18-year-old was visibly limping as he made his way towards the dressing room, raising concerns about the severity of his injury.

The early exits of both players disrupted Manchester United’s strategy and contributed to their defeat in this pre-season fixture.

PSG manager Luis Enrique has shared his thoughts on who should win the 2026 Ballon d’Or, saying he believes the award should go to one of his players.

He said, “The Ballon d’Or should go to a PSG player, We have players who have won the Champions League. We have Fabián, who won the World Cup as well. We have Ousmane, who won the Ballon d’Or last season. That’s my opinion, but I’m not interested in individual awards.”

The 2026 Ballon d’Or ceremony is scheduled to take place in London on October 26, with the shortlist set to be revealed on September 8.
