Manchester United Lisandro Martinez will require another operation over his foot injury.
The second operation on his broken metatarsal will take place next week.
United medical staff had earlier assesed him and it has now been said that the Argentine will have another date with knives and scissors.
Earlier in April, he had undergone a surgery on his fractured metatarsal.
The club noted that setback occurred in the loss at Arsenal on September 3 even through the world cup winner played with the injury in the defeats against Brighton and Bayern Munich.
This, by extension means that Martinez could be out until December. He joins the likes of Sergio Reguilon on the injury list.
Manchester United lost their league game tó Crystal Palace on Saturday. The 1-0 narrow loss has further heightened the pressure on the Erik Ten Hag led team.
