Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand will be sidelined for up
to two weeks after the recurrence of a groin injury, according to
manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
Ferdinand was forced off at half-time of his side's 1-1 draw
against Middlesbrough at Old Trafford on Saturday and will miss
several crucial games in United's treble chase, including both legs
of the Champions League semi-final against AC Milan.
Ferguson said: "It should be two weeks. He definitely won't be
available for Milan, but we expect to have him back for the Chelsea
game."
The England centre-back is just the latest in a long line of United
stars to be injured in recent weeks. Kieran Richardson also
sustained a knock against Middlesbrough and Gary Neville, Nemanja
Vidic, Mikael Silvestre, Louis Saha and Park Ji-Sung are all still
out.
MOD: Remarks not suited for the
title is removed.
