Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has confirmed forward Joshua Zirkzee will miss the remainder of the season due to a hamstring injury.
Zirkzee limped off during the 4-1 defeat to Newcastle last weekend and looked visibly upset as he was helped from the field.
"He is out for the season," Amorim said in his press conference ahead of facing Lyon in the second leg of the Europa League quarter-final on Thursday. "He will not play again this season, let's prepare him for the next one.
"It is tough, he was improving in every aspect of the game. It is tough for any player but he has to be ready to recover."
Amorim also revealed Andre Onana will return to the starting XI for the visit of Lyon. The goalkeeper was dropped for the defeat to Newcastle after a disastrous performance in the first leg against the French side, before which he become embroiled in a public spat with Lyon midfielder - and former United player - Nemanja Matic.
However, Altay Bayindir was similarly poor in conceding four times against Newcastle, meaning Onana will reclaim the No 1 shirt on Thursday.

AMORIN has to take the blame for the last couple of weeks . The man management, the substitutions, very poor . Newcastle are one of the most physical teams in the league , Zirkzee should have never started that match , how can you bench him against Lyon and play him against Newcastle????????? Then the only match garanancho has been decent , he was taken of so early. Anyway he is learning on the job and we still fully behind him

If you hate one particular player just say it and stop spewing nonsense.

This Amorim's back three style of play has failed ...he needs to go back to United's traditional 422 formation...other he is not achieving anything

The problem with United is the defense, they don't help the goalkeeper, the goalkeeper pouch the ball the defense is just looking at it as if they don't know what to do next
