Chelsea vs Man United! Mourinho provides vital injury update ahead of FA Cup final

Considering he has netted 27 goals and made nine assists in 50 matches this term, Premier League giants Manchester United will want Belgium forward Romelu Lukaku back on the pitch as soon as possible.

Injured front man

The Belgium international striker sustained an injury in the victory over North London giants Arsenal a week ago, and particularly with the Emirates FA Cup final ahead, United will desperately want to see the big man fully recovered soonest.

From the player’s perspective, he will also be worried with regards to the FIFA World Cup in Russia next month, and so the tactician’s injury update on his injury condition would have been vital to Belgium head coach Roberto Martinez too.

FA Cup final ahead

The Red Devil’s will face Chelsea at Wembley Stadium on May 19, with both sides looking to finish the season on a good note with a silverware having performed poorly in other competitions.

It will be crucial for United to have their top goalscorer back on the pitch, as aside his goals, the forward also offers an intimidating presence in attack and has been a major focal point in Jose Mourinho’s plans all campaign.

We’ll wait to see if the forward will be risked against either Watford or West Ham United in two weeks.
