Manchester United star Patrick Dorgu suffered a hamstring injury during the UEFA Nations League game.
Dorgu started in the left wing spot for Denmark against Wales but was taken off at the half-hour mark after he went down holding his hamstring.
His injury will undoubtedly raise concerns for United head coach Michael Carrick, particularly with a hectic schedule approaching.
It remains unclear how long Dorgu could be sidelined, leaving Carrick waiting anxiously for further updates.
With Dorgu potentially unavailable, two Man United players must immediately raise their levels and step up for their head coach.
Marcus Rashford
Dorgu started in an advanced position on the left flank in the opening Premier League game of the season.
Since then, Marcus Rashford has been handed the starting role, with Dorgu largely operating as a substitute.
Rashford has looked lively on the wing but is still waiting for his first goal or assist of the season.
The 28-year-old now needs to sharpen his final product and repay the faith Carrick has shown in him.
United supporters have welcomed Rashford back with open arms, and the time has arrived for the academy graduate to turn that backing into performances.
Noussair Mazraoui
Carrick has been forced to use Dorgu as a left-back in two games due to an injury to Luke Shaw.
With United set to play six games in just 20 days next month, Carrick will need to carefully manage Shaw’s minutes to keep him fit.
If Dorgu is unavailable, Noussair Mazraoui could become the automatic choice at left-back.
Mazraoui has looked impressive in that position for Morocco, but the demands will increase significantly in the Premier League.
The former Bayern Munich defender enjoyed a solid debut campaign at United but struggled to maintain consistency last season.
If Mazraoui can provide stability at left-back during Dorgu’s absence, Carrick may feel the impact of losing the versatile 21-year-old a little less.
