- Matthijs de Ligt has been sidelined since November 30 due to a persistent back injury, missing over two months of matches for Manchester United.
- Before his absence, de Ligt played every minute of every Premier League game and led the team in aerial duels won this season.
- The injury's cause remains uncertain, possibly involving muscular, neural, or joint complications, each requiring different recovery timelines.
- Manchester United’s defense now relies on Harry Maguire and Lisandro Martinez as the first-choice center-back pairing amid the ongoing uncertainty.
They are always complex, or they have the potential to be very complex. We don’t know what this one is, we don’t know if it is a muscular issue, a neural issue or an articular (joint) issue. Each would come with its own set of complications and timelines.— Stephen Smith, CEO and founder of Kitman Labs, told Metro about the complexities of back injuries in top athletes.
