However, during his five-minute cameo, the 25-year-old sustained a hamstring injury which is now set to make him the latest player unavailable to Erik ten Hag.

Wan-Bissaka had started the Brighton match on the bench as he battled with illness.

He had started every game prior to the international break.

An official club statement said initial indications ahead of a full assessment suggested Wan-Bissaka would be out for "several weeks".

Wan-Bissaka being sidelined adds to an already extensive list of stars who are unavailable to Ten Hag through either injury, disciplinary issues or other factors.

And United fans were understandably upset with the latest development.

Reacting on Twitter, one fan wrote: "Just end the season."

A second said: "When it rains it pours."

"At this rate all our players will be out by December including the manager," remarked a third.

A fourth said: "Everyday we wake up to bad news at this club."

A fifth typed: "We’re finished."

While another added: "Close down the club."

Wan-Bissaka being sidelined means three of United's first-choice back four will be in the medical room - with Luke Shaw and Raphael Varane having missed a large portion of the season already.

In midfield, United have been without Mason Mount, Sofyan Amrabat and Kobbie Mainoo, while both Jadon Sancho and Antony are out of the team until further notice.

United will face Bayern Munich in midweek knowing they will have to lock up Harry Kane and Co with an even more depleted defence than usual.

However, in what seems to be a rare boost for the Red Devils at the minute, Ten Hag has hinted at possible returns for a number of his stars for next week's Premier League clash with Burnley.

The Dutchman also indicated one unnamed star could be in contention to make the squad against Bayern on Wednesday.
