Manchester United boss Michael Carrick has eased concerns over Mason Mount after the midfielder left early against PSG following a knock. Carrick said the substitution was precautionary, while Mount later walked without difficulty. The 27-year-old’s United career has been disrupted by injuries, with just 25 Premier League starts in 114 possible. United drew 1-1 and face Hull City on August 22.

Michael Carrick admitted he had to be “careful” with Mason Mount after the England midfielder handed Manchester United an injury scare in their friendly draw with Paris St Germain. Mount has had a torrid time with injuries since signing from Chelsea in a £55 million ($74 million) deal three years ago, starting only 25 Premier League games for United in that time.
