Manchester United receive huge injury boost

 

Antonio Valencia says he is fine after limping off during Manchester United’s win away to West Brom on Sunday. 

 

Jose Mourinho hinted after the match Valencia could be out for a long spell on the sidelines after suffering a 'December injury' in the second half of United’s 2-1 win. 

 

Valencia’s absence over the busy festive period would have been a huge blow for United but the 32-year-old took to Instagram to allay injury fears. 

 

“Three points a hard stadium. Thanks for your support and concern. I am fine and our Manchester United won!” he posted on his official Instagram account

Valencia has established himself as one of the best right-backs in Europe during Mourinho’s reign of United. 

 

In fact, he has scored as many Premier League goals this season (2) than in his previous three campaigns combined.
