Kleberson Injury Blow

Manchester United’s World Cup winning midfielder Kleberson has received news that he suffered a dislocated shoulder during the Southampton game on Sunday.

Kleberson was substituted in the second half of the game by Cristiano Ronaldo and was taken to a near by hospital for an X-Ray.

Later on doctors told him that he suffered a dislocated shoulder and would be out for a month.

“He'll be out for a month. We have decided to rest him for a week to see if it settles down and if that doesn't work we might have to put him in for an operation.” Said Sir Alex Ferguson.

Kleberson isn’t the only United player on the side lines. Paul Scholes needs a Hernia operation and will be out for some time. Rio Ferdinand has a kidney problem and will be a doubt for England’s games against Liechtenstein and Macedonia.
