<\/p>\nManchester United midfielder Mason Mount is set to be out until after the international break due to an injury he suffered against Tottenham.<\/p>\n
The England international, who joined United from Chelsea earlier this summer, started the first two Premier League games of the season under manager Erik ten Hag. However, he was withdrawn late in the match against Tottenham as United suffered a 2-0 defeat.<\/p>\n
A statement from United has now confirmed Mount will be unavailable for the game against Nottingham Forest on Saturday and he is also expected to sit out the trip to Arsenal on Sunday, September 3. The club expect him to return to action after the international break next month, reports the Mirror.<\/p>\n
The injury comes as a setback for Mount, who missed several games for Chelsea last season due to a pelvic problem that required surgery. United are in 12th place after two games with three points.<\/p>\n

Manager Erik ten Hag praised Mount's contribution against Tottenham, before the outcome of his injury was confirmed. "He did well," said Ten Hag. "I think we dominated Spurs totally the first half, especially in the midfield area, and that was in and out of possession. Mason played an important part in that.<\/p>\n
"We are disappointed today and first we have to look to ourselves. We had to score that first goal because we created the chances. And the meaning of the first goal is very important in every Premier League game."<\/p>\n

It remains unclear what exactly caused Mount's injury, as United did not provide specific details. The club will be hoping for a swift recovery and aims to have him back in time for their first Champions League group game, which is scheduled for the week of September 18.<\/p>\n
Before that, the Red Devils face Brighton in the league on September 16. Mount's injury also raises doubts about his availability for England's upcoming games.<\/p>\n
England play a Euro 2024 qualifier against Ukraine on September 9 and a friendly against Scotland three days later. Mount has not played for the Three Lions since the World Cup in Qatar due to previous injuries. <\/p>\n
