Lisandro Martínez He is one of the Argentine defenders who stands out the most in Europe. After shining at Ajax, he was brought in by Dutch coach Erik ten Hag Manchester Utd and in his first season he managed to win the hearts of the English fans who nicknamed him The butcher (the butcher). However, the world champion will miss the rest of the season with the national team due to a serious injury and has made an exciting post in the networks.
The 25-year-old from Entre Ríos suffered a fractured fifth metatarsal in his right foot in Manchester United’s 2-2 draw with Sevilla at Old Trafford in the Europa League quarter-final on Thursday. It was thrilling to see Martínez leave the pitch on a litter, lifted by his rivals and team-mates Marcos Acuña and Gonzalo Montiel.
This Saturday, Licha used his social networks to send a message to fans. “It’s not how I imagined this special season would end, but sometimes there are obstacles along the way that need to be overcome in order to get stronger and learn from them,” she wrote.
He was immediately optimistic and appreciated the messages of encouragement he received in recent days. “I know in a very short time I’ll be back to look for more,” he added.

And also the double FIFA appointment with the national team which will be played between 14 and 20 June (The AFA is negotiating a tour of Asia, though there are no confirmed rivals yet).
“Lisandro Martínez has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a broken metatarsal in his foot. However, the Argentinian defender should make a full recovery to be ready for the start of next season,” United said.
The injury occurred without the player coming into contact with any rivals or taking any sudden action. The former Newell’s and Defensa y Justicia could not be replaced because his team had already made the five regulation changes.
