Manchester United duo, Eric Bailly and Aaron Wan-Bissaka, have departed the club’s preseason training camp early. The two defenders left the team’s base in Perth, Australia on Tuesday after experiencing some discomfort during their matches. Both players are expected to be available for Manchester United’s opening Premier League match against Leicester City on August 12th.

Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, has not ruled out any potential return of the duo before the start of the season. However, it seems that both defenders will have to work extra hard to regain their fitness and form in time for the new campaign.

The absence of Bailly and Wan-Bissaka comes as a blow to Manchester United’s defensive options ahead of the 2022-23 Premier League season. The club is already struggling with some injuries, including that of Raphael Varane who suffered an ankle injury during the World Cup.

Manchester United has not announced any further updates on Bailly and Wan-Bissaka’s status. However, fans are eagerly waiting for any news on their availability for the upcoming season.

In related news, Manchester United is expected to announce some new signings in the coming weeks as they look to strengthen their squad ahead of the 2022-23 Premier League season.
