Manchester United's Scott McTominay to miss Wolves clash after groin surgery

Manchester United confirmed that Scott has undergone a groin surgery but did not specify a timeline for his return.

Scott McTominay had featured in Manchester United's both fixtures in the league this season so far, coming on from the bench against Southampton.

Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay has had surgery for a groin injury and will miss Sunday's Premier League game at Wolverhampton Wanderers, the club said on Thursday.

The Scotland international has been struggling with the injury for some time, and manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said on Sunday that McTominay had tried several alternatives before deciding surgery was necessary.

McTominay will miss United's final fixture before the international break against Wolves on Sunday.

There is no timeline yet for when the 24-year-old will be back in action, the club said.

McTominay, who has 26 caps for Scotland, is set to miss next month's Group F World Cup qualifiers against Denmark, Moldova and Austria.
