Manchester United are sweating over injuries to Rasmus Hojlund and Leny Yoro after both were forced off in the pre-season defeat to Arsenal in Los Angeles.
Hojlund, 21, opening the scoring at SoFi Stadium with a fine solo effort before having to be withdrawn with what appeared to be a hamstring injury only a few minutes later.

Central defender Yoro, the 18-year-old headline signing of the summer from Lille, also failed to see out the first half and left the field with an ankle issue after receiving treatment.
Erik ten Hag was in the dark after the game and was left hoping both players aren’t sidelined too long.
“We have to wait over 24 hours and then we know hopefully more,” the manager said of the two situations.
“We were very careful especially with Leny, he did only 50 per cent from the sessions and then it is very disappointing that he then has to come off but let’s be positive and see what is the outcome.”
Gabriel Jesus levelled Hojlund’s opener before Gabriel Martinelli scored what proved to be the winner in a 2-1 victory for Mikel Arteta’s side.
United did prevail in a pre-planned penalty shootout after, however, with Jadon Sancho scoring the winning spot kick.
