Manchester United supporters are worried that their new signing has been ruled out of their Premier League clash with Brighton.

Sofyan Amrabat joined Manchester United from Fiorentina on loan for the remainder of the season during the last day of the transfer window.

The Moroccan international has not played for the Red Devils and has been sidelined due to injury when they take on Brighton.

His absence has caused a little fear to United fans as they claim they are doomed against Brighton.

United fans lament on social media

According to reports from the Sun, Manchester United fans have taken to X formerly known as Twitter to complain about their new signing who will miss the game against Brighton.

This summer, the Red Devils were very active in the transfer market, adding an astounding eight new players before the window shut.

The most costly arrivals were Rasmus Hojlund, Mason Mount, and Andre Onana, who cost, respectively, £72m, £60m, and £47m.

Angry United supporters vented on Twitter about the midfielder's absence, with one writing, "What is the strategy behind buying injured players."

Another said, "We're finished."

And another said: "It's a joke."

One remarked, "All I can say is it’s the Manchester United way."

Another chimed in, "I'll be amazed if we finish in the top five this season. I'm being honest."

Amrabat will not be playing in today's game at Old Trafford, United manager Erik Ten Hag announced in his pre-game press conference on Friday.
