Another Man Utd midfielder gets injured, he will undergo rehabilitation at Carrington
Manchester United's rotten luck with injuries is no longer limited to the senior team.
Dan Gore, who joined Rotherham United on loan last month, is the latest casualty in a series of unfortunate events.
Manchester Evening News report that Gore has 'returned to United to receive treatment for a foot injury'.
The 20-year-old 'is believed to have suffered a hairline foot fracture'.
Gore made an impressive debut for Rotherham, coming on as a substitute against Birmingham City after an injury to Mallik Wilks.
He wasted no time in making an impact, setting up the Millers' only goal in a 2-1 defeat with a brilliant cross from the left.
The youngster delivered a fantastic cross from the left flank to Sam Nomber who headed it home.
In a major twist, Gore ruled himself out of the next clash due to a foot injury.
He will now undergo rehabilitation at Carrington and is 'expected to be out of action for around a month'.
Gore could return to Rotherham but only once he is ready to train with his new club.
This injury setback is a bitter blow for the talented youngster, who has been plagued by misfortune over the past 12-15 months.
He was loaned out to Port Vale in January 2023 but his time there was cut short after just one appearance due to an injury.
A freak shoulder injury during the summer delayed his start to the 2024/25 campaign.
Gore returned to fitness late in 2024 and earned a loan move with the hope to get a taste of first-team football.
The promising midfielder made his senior debut for United under Erik ten Hag against Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup in September 2023.
He later made his Premier League bow against Aston Villa before moving to Port Vale.
Once viewed as ahead of Toby Collyer in the pecking order, his career has been severely hampered by injuries.
There is no doubt that he is an extremely talented midfielder who plays with intensity.
Manager Ruben Amorim prefers players to play with urgency and Gore ticks that box.
However, he needs to stay fit and have a solid few months of first-team football elsewhere before knocking Amorim's door.
United are short of options in the midfield after injuries to Kobbie Mainoo, Manuel Ugarte and Toby Collyer.
Amorim was forced to hand Casemiro his first start of 2025 in the 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

Caoimhin Kelleher ‘buzzing' as he completes £18m move to Brentford from Liverpool
Goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher has left Liverpool to join Brentford in a £18m deal. It brings to an end a nine-year stay at the club, with Liverpool receiving an initial £12.5m for Kelleher and add-ons taking the overall fee to £18m. Advertisement The 26-year-old has signed a five-year contract with the Bees, with the club holding an option to extend the deal by a further 12 months. Kelleher is expected to take over as Brentford's first choice goalkeeper following the departure of Dutch international Mark Flekken, who has joined Bayer Leverkusen for around £11m. 'I'm buzzing, I'm really happy to be here,' said the 26-year-old. 'I don't think it was very difficult for me to leave [Liverpool]. I felt for my own career that the time was right for me to go, to be a number one and to play every week. 'I heard of some interest a number of weeks ago. Once I knew Brentford was in for me, it was definitely one I was really excited about and wanted to do as quickly as possible.' Advertisement The Irishman joined Liverpool from Ringmahon Rangers in 2015, leaves the Merseyside club having made 67 senior appearances, including 25 in the Premier League. A dependable deputy to Alisson Becker, he earned a reputation as a composed shot-stopper and was particularly instrumental in Liverpool's domestic cup runs where he memorably scored a penalty in the shootout that decided the 2022 Carabao Cup final. Over the course of his Liverpool career, Kelleher won an impressive array of silverware including two Premier League titles, the Champions League, FA Cup, two League Cups, and the UEFA Super Cup. He kept 24 clean sheets during his time with the Reds and featured in more than 40 cup matches. Despite his success, Kelleher has been open about his ambition to play regular first-team football. Speaking last month, he said: 'I think I've said it before as well that I feel like I'm a number one and I feel like I'm good enough to play week in, week out. That's what I'm looking to do.' Advertisement Kelleher's arrival signals a fresh start and a chance for the Irishman to establish himself as a first-choice goalkeeper in the Premier League. This season, Kelleher featured in 20 matches for Liverpool, ten of which came in the Premier League. However, his path to more minutes became even more complicated with Liverpool set to welcome Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili in July. The Georgian international is expected to compete with Alisson for the No. 1 spot following a £29m transfer agreed last summer. His former club Ringmahon Rangers are also set to benefit from the transfer thanks to a 20% sell-on clause included in his original move to Liverpool, netting them a substantial seven figure sum. Kelleher becomes the second major departure from Liverpool this summer, following former vice-captain Trent Alexander-Arnold's £10m move to Real Madrid.

Manchester United have presented their offer for Aymeric Laporte who wants to leave Al-Nassr
Manchester United have presented their offer for Aymeric Laporte who wants to leave Al-Nassr Manchester United could do with defensive reinforcements ahead of the new season, given the departures of Victor Lindelof and Jonny Evans. The injury records of Luke Shaw and Matthijs de Ligt are also concerning, while Lisandro Martinez could also be set for a positional change. Advertisement But given the need to strengthen up top, Ruben Amorim is unlikely to have a lot of wriggle room for a new centre-back, which explains the radio silence regarding the club's pursuit of Jarrad Branthwaite. It is likely INEOS will consider a low-cost option, and Football Espana have relayed that the Red Devils have joined the race for Al-Nassr's Aymeric Laporte. Aymeric Laporte wants to return to Europe United fans will remember him well, from his time with Manchester City where he won six Premier League titles and a Champions League. The Spain international is looking for a way out of the Saudi Pro League after spending two seasons with Cristiano Ronaldo's side, and he is prioritising a return to Europe. Advertisement While his former club Athletic Club were looking at a potential cut-price €10 million deal for the 31-year-old, Al-Nassr will try and recoup as close to the €27 million they paid for him in 2023. The report suggests the 20-time English league champions have presented their offer to the defender's agent, while Chelsea have joined the race as well. Laporte has offer from United The likes of Galatasaray, Fenerbahce, Napoli are also monitoring proceedings with interest. 'Chelsea are interested in Laporte! The defender has offers from Manchester United, Fenerbahce, Galatasaray, and Napoli.' His winning mentality could be worth adding to the United dressing room, but INEOS have refrained from stop-gap deals since coming in. Advertisement Aymeric Laporte has struggled in the Middle East, which has also seen him lose his place in the Spanish national team. For the fee being quoted, it makes little sense for United to pursue his signing. Feature image Stuart Franklin via Getty Images Follow us on Bluesky: @
