After suffering a serious injury during Manchester United’s Premier League match against Leicester, Ayden Heaven took to Instagram on Sunday night to share the news. Heaven is currently in excellent form for Manchester United.
Ruben Amorim’s team travelled to the King Power over the weekend, and the 18-year-old player, who had previously shown his potential in matches against Arsenal and Real Sociedad previously this month, was given another opportunity to start.
Following a collision with Leicester forward Patson Daka in the 51st minute, Heaven was taken off the field on a stretcher. Heaven was in excruciating pain on the sidelines after the collision, which occurred after the game had gotten off to a strong start.
Heaven was eventually assisted off the pitch by medical personnel before being replaced by Toby Collyer. In point of fact, Sky Sports made the decision not to show replays of the incident during their live broadcast.
Ruben Amorim gave an update on Heaven’s injury during his post-match interview. Heaven was injured during the match.
On the other hand, he stated, “Well, we have to evaluate during the week.” “Because he is a young child, he is unable to articulate the emotions that he is experiencing, which makes it difficult for us to understand something.
The following is an excerpt from Amorim’s statement: “He is a little bit more calm now, but we have to assess during the week.” However, he is doing an excellent job, and it would be unfortunate if he had something for a considerable amount of time. The best of luck to him is our wish.
Heaven received praise from Amorim for his most recent performance, which came just three days after he had presented himself in a strong manner against Real Sociedad. Heaven was given his first start in the Premier League.
The Portuguese head coach continued by saying, “Today was for me the most difficult game for him because he plays so well against Real Sociedad, and we always expect these young kids to relax a little bit,” referring to the fact that Real Sociedad is against him.
Let’s keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best, because he was so focused and he played quite well.
According to the Manchester Evening News, Heaven left the King Power with his foot in a protective boot. The newspaper also claims that the defender successfully walked out of the stadium without any assistance.
In addition, the defender commented on Rasmus Hojlund’s Instagram post which was published shortly after 11 o’clock at night. “Deserved” was all he wrote after the Dane broke his recent goal drought, which elicited a tremendous response from United supporters.
While one person commented, “Get well soon, Ayden,” another person said, “Speedy recovery, bro.”
Jonny Evans, Lisandro Martinez, Harry Maguire, and Leny Yoro were all sidelined for United’s trip to Leicester on account of injuries. Heaven’s injury adds to the ongoing crisis that United is experiencing. United was already without four central defenders for the trip.
