Telles injury blow for Man Utd ahead of new season as left-back picks up ankle problem

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has revealed that the Brazilian defender faces a race against time to make the start of the 2021-22 campaign

Alex Telles has handed Manchester United an untimely injury blow, with the Brazilian left-back picking up an ankle problem.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed that the 28-year-old defender will be "out for a few weeks" after suffering a knock in training.

That setback has prevented Telles from figuring in a pre-season friendly clash with QPR on Saturday, while he also faces a race against time to make the start of the 2021-22 campaign.
