Patrick Dorgu


The wingback sustained a major hamstring injury during the second half of the 3-2 win over Arsenal at the end of January.

Initial estimates put Dorgu’s recovery time at around ten weeks, so he will not be back before the last international break of the season.

It is always tricky when returning from a serious hamstring tear. Setbacks are not uncommon, and the club’s medical team will be mindful of that fact.


Dorgu will hopefully be in training at some point over the next two to three weeks if everything goes to plan. With United out of the FA Cup, there is a decent chance that the Dane could play in United’s first match next month, which comes on 13th April.
