Manchester United will be without both Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans for their upcoming match against Bournemouth due to defensive injury concerns.
Varane is expected to be sidelined for several weeks following a muscle injury suffered in the game against Chelsea, while Evans is dealing with a shorter-term muscle problem.
Man United currently have a shortage of six experienced defenders. Tyrell Malacia, Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez, and Victor Lindelof are all sidelined due to injuries. Additionally, with the recent injuries to Evans and Varane, Erik ten Hag is now facing a selection dilemma.
