Benjamin Sesko injury latest - Ruben Amorim verdict and Man United transfer plans concern

Manchester United head into the international break with contrasting feelings following their draw against Tottenham Hotspur. Benjamin Sesko became a worry for United during the match, with the forward forced off in the 85th minute despite only coming on around the hour mark. United head coach Ruben Amorim's immediate thoughts after the final whistle focused on Sesko potentially sustaining a knee problem. The Red Devils secured a point against Spurs after Matthijs de Ligt netted an equaliser in added time following Richarlison's earlier strike for the hosts in North London. United now face an anxious wait to learn the full severity of Sesko's possible injury', reports the Manchester Evening News . Here, Mirror Sport examines what has been discussed and reported regarding Sesko's potential injury for United. Reports from Slovenia have suggested that Sesko has already received initial examinations to assess the severity of a possible injury sustained during the draw at Tottenham. Sportklub have reported that the preliminary tests conducted on Sesko's potential injury did not reveal a "worrying condition" but noted that additional assessments are still required to establish a complete diagnosis for the problem, including an MRI scan. Whether Sesko will join up with his Slovenia squad for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Sweden and Kosovo during the international break remains unclear. Amorim expressed his uncertainty about the severity of Sesko's potential injury after their draw with Tottenham. "We have to check. He had something in his knee, let's see," Amorim told reporters on Saturday. "I have no idea. Because it's the knee, we never know," Amorim went on, when asked if if had concerns that Sesko had picked up a serious injury. The United boss concluded: "I'm more concerned with an injury because it's in the knee and I don't know. We need Ben to be a better team." Amorim was also quizzed on whether United's January transfer window plans could be affected if Sesko suffered a serious injury. The upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) is expected to leave Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo and Noussair Mazraoui unavailable for potentially several weeks, raising questions about potential transfer plans. "We have to check everything, we have to check what has happened with Ben," said Amorim. "Of course, we are going to have a problem there [with AFCON], but we already knew. Then you can prepare that in the summer, but then you have a lot of players in the summer who are not going to play because it's one game per week. So the management of that situation is going to be hard. "But let's see when the window is open, if we can improve the team and try to prepare something that happened. Until then, we have to take the chance." Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
