Manchester United's 18-year-old defender, Ayden Heaven, has provided a positive update on his recovery following the injury sustained during the team's 3-0 victory over Leicester City on Sunday.
Heaven was stretchered off early in the second half after a collision with Leicester striker Patson Daka, leading to immediate concerns about the severity of his condition.
Post-match, Heaven was observed leaving the King Power Stadium with his foot in a protective brace, prompting further apprehension among fans and teammates. However, addressing supporters via his Instagram account, Heaven expressed optimism about his recovery, stating: "Thank you guys for all the support! I have read all your messages, and I’m doing really well and recovering fast."
Manager Ruben Amorim commented on the situation, noting the challenge in assessing the injury due to Heaven's youth and difficulty articulating his symptoms. He expressed hope for a swift recovery, highlighting Heaven's impressive performances in recent matches, including those against Arsenal and Real Sociedad.
Heaven's integration into the first team has been notable since his transfer from Arsenal in January, where he joined United for a fee of £1.5 million. His rapid progression and impactful displays have been acknowledged by both coaching staff and teammates.
The club and its supporters remain hopeful for Heaven's prompt return to action, with further assessments expected to determine the exact timeline of his recovery.
