Fans react to heartfelt promise from Mason Mount
Mason Mount has once again been struck by the cruel hand of misfortune, with Manchester United confirming the midfielder will be sidelined for several weeks following a leg injury sustained during the thrilling 2-1 derby victory against Manchester City.
The 25-year-old, who joined United from Chelsea last summer, has struggled to gain momentum at Old Trafford, with persistent injuries limiting his contributions.
Mount’s latest setback comes just 14 minutes into the derby clash, marking only his fourth Premier League start of the season.
United manager Ruben Amorim broke the disappointing news during Friday’s press conference:
“[He will be out for] several weeks. I don’t know the exact date, but it’s going to be for long. And that’s it; it’s part of football, and you continue.”
