After being seen leaving Old Trafford on crutches, Manchester United midfielder Christian Eriksen is due for a scan on his injured ankle.
The Danish player had to be taken off after a poor challenge from Andy Carroll in an FA Cup match against Reading, and footage shared online captured Eriksen with a protective boot on the left ankle.
United manager Erik ten Hag said there will need to be an assessment by the club’s medical team in the coming days in order to determine the severity of the problem.
This injury puts his participation in Wednesday’s Carabao Cup semi-final second leg against Nottingham Forest into question as well as Premier League matches against Crystal Palace and Leeds United.
Ten Hag praised Casemiro who had two goals in United’s eventual 3-1 victory over their Championship opponents, despite Marcus Rashford’s goal having been ruled out by VAR.
Amadou Mbengue was able to score a consolation goal for Reading right before Carroll was sent off for receiving two yellow cards.
