Manchester United have confirmed midfielder Mason Mount will be out of action until the international break in September after picking up an injury against Tottenham Hotspur.
The 24-year-old started and played for 85 minutes during Man United’s 2-0 defeat in North London last week on Saturday and was replaced by Facundo Pellistri.
“Mason Mount is set to miss Saturday’s game against Nottingham Forest due to an injury picked up in last weekend’s encounter with Tottenham Hotspur.
The small complaint is expected to keep Mount out until the international break next month.” Manchester United said in a statement published on their website.
The England midfielder has started both of United’s Premier League games so far this season after making his competitive debut for the club in last week’s 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils signed Mount from Chelsea this summer for £60 million.
