It was revealed that Amorin wanted to buy a defender without hurting him, and Yoro was injured and changed his transfer plan! Manchester United centre-backs are mostly glass men

Manchester United has recently been rumored to have Jonathan Ta, a central defender in the Bundesliga. Ruben Amorin did not intend to buy a central defender, but the defense line's injury has changed his view. The Manchester Evening News of the United Kingdom disclosed that if Lenny Yoro absent from injury to West Ham United for too long this time, the Red Devils will introduce a new central defender. After joining Manchester United for 63 million euros last summer, Yoro suffered a metatarsal fracture in his second game against Arsenal and had to undergo surgery. He did not play for the first time on December 4 in the official game.

19-year-old Yoro then encountered three more injuries, including this left foot injury. He has been tired of injury four times in a season and missed 27 games. Depending on whether he can participate in the UEFA Cup final and the final round of the Premier League against Aston Villa, his injury and missed games may increase.

Like Joro, De Rigt has not yet confirmed whether he can play in Tottenham, and Lisandro Martinez will definitely not be able to participate. Another central defender, 18-year-old Eden Haven, was also troubled by injuries after joining in January. Even Maguire, 31, has three injuries this season. Veteran Evans and "Swedish Iceman" Lindleff spent most of his time recuperating and basically had no games.

Regarding the situation of the defender, Amorin publicly stated this week: "Whether Lenny can play in the final, Lenny (Yoro) and Mattes (Dricht) are the same. But I am considering the situation next year, whether they have long-term injuries, and whether the team needs a new player. This is my concern, not just for the finals. Of course, I hope every player is healthy. But Lenny has a problem with his feet. I am very worried about next season, the next lineup, and the way we form a lineup. This is what I worry most, and other players will prepare for the finals anyway."

Manchester United's defenders are mostly "glass men". Amorin admitted that after he found that Yoro was injured in the battle against West Ham United, he also removed Luke Shaw, who started, as soon as possible, in order to protect the England left gate. 29-year-old Luke Shaw has only played 90 minutes of games since February 2024. Due to numerous defense injuries, Lindleff, whose contract expired this summer, was able to start both rounds against Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League semi-finals.

After Lindelof and Evans left the team, Manchester United's central defenders will be equipped next season with Maguire, Dricht, Lima, Yoro and Haven. Their appearances this season are 37 games, 42 games, 32 games, 32 games and 4 games respectively. By comparing Manchester United's fullbacks, you can see the vulnerability of the centre-backs!

Data shows that Mazravi, who had to undergo heart surgery at one time, made 54 appearances in various competitions; while the new "Iron Man" Diogu Dalo was injured at the end of the season, he still made 51 appearances. Compared with them, Manchester United's central defenders are too easy to get injured. The total number of appearances between Darlo and Mazlawi is equivalent to the addition of Lima, Maguire and Yoro!

Among them, Lima has been suffering from serious injuries for two consecutive seasons and is absent for a long time. He missed too many games, too long, that many Manchester United fans even a little forgotten about the "Argentine butcher" who had long hair and was focusing on taking care of children.

The central defenders that Manchester United have high expectations are easily injured, so it is not difficult to understand that Amorin wants a real "iron guard" and pays attention to Jonatan Ta. The 29-year-old German international has made 48 appearances so far this season. Data from Germany's "Transfer Market Network" shows that Jonatan Ta has never been injured in a season and has missed a game due to illness. Not only that, in the past seven seasons, he has only had 9 games in his injuries.
