At the top of the table in the English championship club - bad news. Veteran midfielder Ryan Giggs, team captain Gary Neville, and striker Louis Saha will not be able to help their team in Wednesday's UEFA Champions League match against Copenhagen.
The club's website announced on Tuesday that Ryan Giggs will not travel to the Danish capital due to a calf injury, right-back Gary Neville is plagued by calf pain, and forward Louis Saha has knee problems.
In addition, the 31-year-old team captain Gary Neville will probably not be able to help his team in Saturday's English Premier League match against Portsmouth.
England's injured national team defender will be replaced by Wes Brown, and in the attacking line, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer or Alan Smith will play alongside Wayne Rooney.
Meanwhile, French defender Patrice Evra, who had an outstanding match against Bolton, which "the Red Devils" won 4-0, suffered a shin injury, but luckily for the club, he managed to recover in time to travel with the team to Copenhagen.
"It is a huge loss to lose players of such experience and caliber, but we have a great team. We have players who can replace them like Wes Brown or Gabriel Heinze, so everything is not so bad," said the team's head coach Sir Alex Ferguson to the club's website.
"Man Utd," who are currently tied for first place with Chelsea in the English Premier League, has not yet experienced a loss in the Champions League, and if the team manages to beat Copenhagen on Wednesday, the club will secure a ticket to the prestigious European tournament's quarter-finals.
