The 18-year-old signed a five-year contract with the Red Devils last month following a £52m move from Lille but was forced off during the pre-season friendly defeat to the Gunners in Los Angeles.

Yoro was then spotted wearing a protective boot before United’s game with Real Betis in San Diego and is now expected to miss the opening three months of the campaign, potentially seeing him return in October.

Striker Rasmus Hojlund opened the scoring against Arsenal but a hamstring injury is expected to keep him on the sidelines for six weeks.

United next play Liverpool in Columbia on Saturday before meeting Manchester City in the Community Shield at Wembley a week later.
