Man Utd defender Jones suffers new injury setback

Manchester United defender Phil Jones has suffered another injury setback.

The Sun says the former England international has had further knee ligament damage and will miss United's game against Feyenoord in the Europa League, when he had been due to feature.

Jose Mourinho revealed in Rotterdam that the defender, 24, has picked up knee ligament trouble – after Henrikh Mkhitaryan stayed home to continue injury rehab and Wayne Rooney also missed out.

According to the Man Utd website, Jones may be sidelined for the next few weeks.

A long list of back, ankle, groin, knee, head, hamstring, shin, ankle and calf injuries mean that the former Blackburn man has crocked virtually every part of his lower anatomy.
