Manchester United Defender Luke Shaw ‘Devastated’ by Fresh Injury Blow

Manchester United defender Luke Shaw has expressed that he is “devastated” following another injury setback, which occurred after his most recent appearance as a second-half substitute against Everton on Sunday, and is expected to keep him sidelined for a few weeks. According to club sources, this injury is a new issue, not a reoccurrence of a prior problem. The 29-year-old player has only featured in three substitute appearances for United this season, having been out of action for the club due to injury since February. On social media, Shaw communicated: “It is hurting a lot having to write this as I really thought I had got through my recent struggles and was on a positive path going forward, but unfortunately I’ve had a small setback.” He further stated: “I’ve been through a lot and had a lot of ups and downs, but this has been my toughest period.” Shaw added: “I’m absolutely devastated and it’s extremely tough to come to terms with reality at this time.” He concluded his message by saying: “I understand there’s going to be people frustrated, angry, disappointed and I understand all that. There is no-one feeling that more than me at this moment in time.” Despite ongoing injury concerns with United, Shaw was included in Gareth Southgate’s squad for Euro 2024, where he participated in two substitute appearances during the knockout stages and then started in the 2-1 final loss to Spain. This marked his final competitive appearance before he came off the bench in manager Ruben Amorim’s inaugural match against Ipswich on 24 November.
