MANCHESTER, UK — Manchester United have officially recalled teenage sensation Harry Amass from his loan spell at Norwich City, following reports of a “serious” injury sustained in training.
The 18-year-old left-back, who became a fan favorite after his senior debut last season, will return to Carrington immediately. United’s medical staff are set to take over his rehabilitation process as they assess the full extent of an issue that could keep him sidelined for the remainder of the 2025/26 campaign.
The ‘Clash’ with Amorim
Amass’s season has been a rollercoaster of high performances and off-field tension. After winning back-to-back Player of the Month awards during a loan spell at Sheffield Wednesday, the youngster famously clashed with former boss Ruben Amorim on social media.
When Amorim suggested the defender was “struggling” in South Yorkshire, Amass responded by highlighting his individual honors a post he later deleted. Despite the friction, scouts have consistently lauded Amass for his “incredible upper strength” and maturity on the ball.
Philippe Clement’s Verdict
Norwich boss Philippe Clement delivered the grim update following a recent training session at Carrow Road.
“It looks to be serious, and he will be out for a long time,” Clement admitted. “He’s a Man Utd player, so it’s important to speak with them first. We didn’t want to say too much before a full assessment, but the signs aren’t good.”
The Path Forward under Carrick
Once Amass completes his recovery, the plan is for him to reintegrate with Michael Carrick’s setup, initially through the U21s. With Luke Shaw remaining the undisputed first choice and Tyrell Malacia’s fitness still a recurring concern, a fit-again Amass could provide vital depth for the 2026/27 pre-season.
