Manchester United have suffered a midfield setback with Carlos Baleba potentially sidelined until Christmas after limping off during the team's 3-2 victory over Roma. The midfielder will be out for "weeks," according to reports from The Independent.
Baleba sustained the injury during the match against the Italian side, leaving United's midfield options depleted for the coming fixture period. The timeline suggests he could miss a significant stretch of matches through the holiday period.
Richard Jolly of The Independent reported the news on November 6, 2026, noting the extent of the layoff for the United midfielder.
