Manchester United's iron guard officially announced the reason for leaving the team at half-time, and his son's head surgery! Amorim made him captain and encouraged

In Manchester United's 1-0 defeat to Wolves in the Premier League, 30-year-old Swedish defender Victor Lindelof captained the side. "The Iceman" wears the captain's armband for three reasons: he is a veteran second only to Luke Shaw in the team, having been with him for eight years; Club captain Bruno Fernandes was rested and sat on the bench; In addition, Lindelof's son suffered a serious injury last week, and Amorim is hoping to encourage the player, who have played together as players at Benfica in the past.

Victor Lindelof was due to replace Mazraoui in the second half of last week's Europa League 5-4 defeat against Leon, but he walked down the tunnel after the warm-up and never came out again. Amorim confirmed after the game that Mazraoui and Victor Lindelof had to leave the team due to personal issues, with Luke Shaw coming off the bench in central defence.

Lindelof's wife, Maia, revealed this week that their three-year-old son had been rushed to hospital for surgery after suffering a serious head injury during the game, so the Swedish centre-back had to leave Old Trafford to stay with him.

His wife, Maia, was also watching the game in the stadium when she suddenly received a call from the nanny: "An hour before the start of the game in Lyon, our nanny called and said that the children were in an ambulance and on their way to the hospital. Our youngest son, Francis, had his head completely cracked, and he was playing after his brother Ted Louis at home, only to fall down on the glass staircase of the house."

Lindelof had planned to continue playing, but his son's injury was too severe and required surgery, so he had to leave at half-time. "His forehead was split in half and was treated in the hospital on Thursday and Friday." Mrs. Lindelof said, "He also had to undergo plastic surgery to get his forehead back to its original shape. This is a procedure that requires anesthesia. It's the first time I've ever encountered a child like this, it's so unpleasant, I hope it doesn't happen again."

Luckily, Lindelof's son Francis has recovered, so he was back on the pitch very quickly. "The operation went well, Francis is back to normal, he is a Viking," Maya said. Everyone was worried, but he acted like nothing had happened. The doctor said he would have a big scar on his forehead, but it didn't matter, he was fine."

However, the game in which Victor Lindelof captained the side did not end well, as United were beaten 1-0 by Wolves and substituted after Pablo Sarabia scored. This could be one of his last games for the Red Devils, as his contract expires this summer and the Swede has no intention of renewing it and the Swede is set to say goodbye to the club.

In Manchester United's match with Wolves, Mazraoui, who also left the team at half-time in the game against Lyon, also started. Most notably, this is his 50th game for the Red Devils, and he has already played more minutes than in two seasons at Bayern Munich!

The reason for Mazraoui's departure has not been made public, and some speculate that his home may have been burglarized. Manchester is not safe, many of the Red Devils' homes have been visited by burglars, and Argentine winger Di Maria is even more frightened and has applied for a transfer to leave.

Mazraoui is clearly unaffected by off-field factors, and despite suffering a heart problem that required surgery, he remains one of United's most attended players this season, and the £15 million move from Bayern Munich is sure to be a successful deal.
