Manchester United’s Luke Shaw Spotted in Slippers Amid Injury Concerns

Manchester United defender Luke Shaw was observed taking a casual stroll wearing slippers, prompting speculation about his injury status as he works to regain fitness after an extended absence from the pitch.

The 29-year-old England international has not started a match for United in nearly a year due to recurring muscle issues. He has made only three brief substitute appearances since manager Ruben Amorim took charge in November.

Shaw’s last appearance came in United’s 4-0 victory over Everton at Old Trafford in December. However, he suffered another setback just days later, devastating fans who were hoping for his return.

There have been concerns that Shaw may have experienced another injury complication, despite participating in training prior to United’s Europa League match against FCSB on Thursday. However, sources indicate the latest issue is minor, with Shaw expected to resume training on Monday.

Following reports of his condition, Shaw was seen out in Wilmslow as United prepare for their upcoming FA Cup clash with Leicester. The defender was notably wearing black Ugg slippers in public, paired with black sweatpants and a puffy jacket.

Shaw faces competition for the left wing-back role in Amorim’s 3-4-2-1 formation from new January signing Patrick Dorgu. The £25 million acquisition from Lecce will likely challenge Shaw for a starting spot once both players are fully fit.

Since joining United from Southampton in 2014, Shaw has registered 4 goals and 25 assists in 278 appearances across all competitions. Fans will be eager to see the talented defender return to regular action after his lengthy spell on the sidelines.
