Wayne Rooney’s availability for Manchester United’s Champions League quarter-final second leg against Bayern Munich is in doubt due to a toe contusion. The Red Devils striker sustained the injury and is expected to miss the match against Newcastle in the Premier League.
Manchester United manager David Moyes expressed concern about Rooney’s condition, stating that his toe is in a bad state and could potentially affect his availability for the crucial match against Bayern Munich. The first leg ended in a 1-1 draw, making the second leg even more important for both teams.
Moyes indicated that they will monitor Rooney’s recovery closely over the weekend and try to expedite his healing process to maximize his chances of featuring in the match against Bayern Munich.
This injury comes as a significant blow for Manchester United, as Rooney’s presence and contributions are crucial to their success in both domestic and European competitions.
