Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has expressed
concern about the amount of knee injuries sustained by Ji-Sung Park
following his trips to represent South Korea.
Ferguson and his staff are looking closely at how the player
travels to and from international duty in Asia as they look to
minimize the injury problems the player has endured over the past
year or so.
"The problem for Ji this season has been the succession of injuries
which have de-railed him in terms of appearances," Ferguson
explained, according to The Daily Telegraph.
"But all of the problems have come after South Korea
international games. We have discussed the problem with their
staff, as to why he comes back with knee swellings.
"That's why we are looking towards changing the way he comes
back from international games in the future.
"But he is a very important figure at Manchester United and he
will be involved now that he is fit."
Park may feature in central midfield or even at right-back for
United at VfL Wolfsburg in the Champions League this evening, as
Ferguson looks to shuffle a squad severely stretched by injuries to
his back four.
