Manchester United star shocks fans with emotional revelation, sharing how “devastated” he feels after troubling news emerges ahead of the club’s next match 😢
Manchester United midfielder Mason Mount has shared an emotional statement after it was confirmed he will be sidelined for several weeks due to a leg injury.
Manchester United midfielder Mason Mount has shared an emotional statement after it was confirmed he will be sidelined for several weeks due to a leg injury.
The injury occurred during the Manchester derby last weekend, forcing Mount to leave the field less than 15 minutes into the match after sustaining a muscle issue.
Following the game, the 25-year-old consulted a specialist on Wednesday, who confirmed he would need time off to recover. Visibly upset, Mount was comforted by his teammates as he exited the pitch at the Etihad Stadium.
Since his move from Chelsea over a year ago, Mount has faced ongoing injury challenges, missing more than 30 matches—a frustrating reality for both the player and the club as he strives to maintain his fitness.
Renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano shared Mount’s heartfelt statement to Manchester United fans on social media. The midfielder expressed his disappointment but pledged to overcome the setback:
*”Words can’t express how devastated I feel right now. You probably saw it on my face when it happened—I knew what it meant.
“United fans, you may not know me well yet, but I promise you, I’ll never give up or lose faith.
“I’ve said this before, but I’ll keep giving everything I’ve got, push through this difficult time, and won’t stop until I’ve achieved that.”*
Mount’s repeated injuries have been a significant setback for both him and the club. New manager Ruben Amorim has high regard for the midfielder, but these fitness issues have hindered his progress under the Portuguese tactician.
This latest blow may prompt Manchester United to explore midfield reinforcements in the January transfer window. Reports suggest Atalanta’s Brazilian midfielder Ederson is a potential target, though the competition for his signature is expected to be fierce.
