Lisandro Martinez will be absent for the rest of the season after Manchester United confirmed that the defender had damaged the cruciate ligament in the defeat of a house on Sunday against Crystal Palace.
The international Argentina was implemented on a weekend stretch, and although United has not specified the time when it will leave, most ACL injuries require a rehabilitation period of at least six months.
This time frame will mean that Martinez will return during the summer and must be fit for the beginning of the next season.
