De Ligt's Surgery Ends United's Season, World Cup Hopes
Description
Manchester Uniteds Matthijs de Ligt, sidelined since November due to a persistent back injury, underwent successful surgery, ending his 2025-2026 season. Despite trying every fix, the Dutch stars return was thwarted, dashing hopes for a late-season comeback or World Cup participation in 2026. Club officials anticipate his return early in the 2026-2027 campaign, with Harry Maguires contract extension potentially shifting summer spending to other areas, allowing De Ligt ample time to recover and resume his role for United.
