The latest Manchester United injury update has revealed how long Danish duo Christian Eriksen and Rasmus Hojlund will be out for after they suffered injuries in the win over Luton Town on Saturday.
Eriksen was substituted in the first-half of the 1-0 win over the Hatters, with Hojlund coming off late on against the Bedfordshire-based side at Old Trafford. Both players will not feature at all over the international break ahead of the final round of Euro 2024 qualifiers.
Christian Eriksen Injury Update
Christian Eriksen was replaced by Mason Mount after 40 minutes after injuring his knee, with Manchester United confirming the midfielder is set to be out for four weeks. The news will come as a blow to boss Erik ten Hag as Eriksen has featured in all but one Premier League game this season and all four UEFA Champions League fixtures.
It means the Dane is going to be absent for key games against Chelsea, Galatasaray and Newcastle but he may well be back in time for the clash against Bayern in mid-December. Eriksen has featured in 59 games in all competitions for the Red Devils scoring 3 goals and providing 12 assists.

Rasmus Hojlund Injury Update
Summer signing Rasmus Hojlund was replaced by Anthony Martial after 79 minutes, with a muscle strain forcing the striker off. United have confirmed he will miss around two weeks of action, which may come as a slight relief to Ten Hag as the international break means he won’t miss any games this weekend as he begins to recover.
With that said, the Dane is almost certainly going to miss the Red Devils clash with Everton on November 26th but should be available for the crunch UEFA Champions League game against Galatasaray three days later. Hojlund is yet to score in the Premier League this season but has been a big hit in Europe, netting five times in four outings.
