Manchester United’s Lisandro Martinez will miss the rest of the season due to a foot injury that required surgery.
The Argentine defender fractured his fifth metatarsal during a Europa League match against Sevilla.
While there was hope that he could return before the summer, it became clear that he would not be able to play again this season.
However, the club is optimistic that Martinez will make a full recovery and be ready for the start of the 2023/24 campaign.
Martinez shared a photo on Instagram after his successful surgery, thanking fans for their support and focusing on his recovery.

The loss of Martinez is a blow for United, who are also dealing with injuries to other key players such as Raphael Varane and Marcus Rashford.
Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof will need to step up in their absence. Manager Erik ten Hag is facing an injury crisis, with several other players also sidelined.
Despite these challenges, United is still competing on three fronts in the League, FA Cup, and Europa League.
