Man Utd’s Manuel Ugarte in doubt to face Brentford after suffering knock vs Ecuador
The nature of his injury remains unclear, but it raises concerns over his availability for Saturday’s clash at Old Trafford.
Mo Farah has built up quite the following over the course of his storied career but when it comes to his favourite club, Arsenal, the 34-year-old proved he’s just another fan as he gleefully displayed his new Arsenal-themed shoes on Instagram.
The 34-year-old Farah, a four-time Olympic gold medallist and six-time World champion, is a big Arsenal fan and has even trained with Arsene Wenger’s first-team in the past.
The Somalian-born British athlete, whose training base has been Oregon for the last few years, stopped running track events after the 2017 World Championships in London, in which he won the gold in the 10,000m and silver in the 5,000 m.
Farah has now switched to road running after the Worlds and on 10 September he won his first race, the Great North Run-a half marathon event-with a time of 1:00:06.
Arsenal, meanwhile, have recovered from a disastrous start to their 2017-18 Premier League season to climb up to a credible fifth in the league table with a points tally of 13 after seven matches played.
The Gunners, however, have made an encouraging start to their UEFA Europa League campaign and are topping their group with six points after having won both their games despite playing a team mostly consisting of fringe players and youth team prospects.
