Injury Woes: Zirkzee's Absence Threatens Man Utd's Season Finish

Manchester United's Zirkzee faces a long injury layoff, possibly missing the rest of the season.

Sami Mokbel, Senior football correspondent Manchester United forward Joshua Zirkzee has suffered a hamstring injury that could keep him out for the remainder of the season. The 23-year-old Netherlands international limped off in the second half of Sunday's defeat at Newcastle and is undergoing tests to assess the severity. Head coach Ruben Amorim will discuss the matter before the crucial Europa League match against Lyon. The news is a setback for the team, especially with important fixtures coming up.

If United reach the Europa League final, they will play in Bilbao, Spain, on 21 May. United have six Premier League games left, with the final one against Aston Villa on 25 May.
