Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof is underdoing investigations into the cause of the breathing difficulties he suffered during Saturday’s 1-0 win at Norwich, but it is not believed to be related to the coronavirus outbreak at the club.
Lindelof, 27, was substituted in the 74th minute at Carrow Road after struggling to catch his breath.
United interim manager Ralf Rangnick said after the match the Sweden defender also had a higher heart rate than normal, prompting the decision to replace him.
In a statement on Tuesday, United said: “Victor is currently undergoing a series of precautionary investigations. He has recovered well from the episode he experienced in the match against Norwich.
