DARK SECRETS: Man utd star reveals he s been playing in boots too big due to ongoing injury - The Real Truth

Victor Lindelof has revealed he has been playing in a size bigger boots after breaking his toe during a Nations League game against Slovenia last September.

The Sweden international was stamped on by an opposition player and broke his toe in the 1-1 draw at the Friends Arena but still carried on playing. Lindelof didn't miss any matches and instead wore one boot too big while taking painkillers to reduce the pain.

A week after injuring his toe, the 28-year-old came on in Manchester United's 6-3 defeat at Manchester City to play the final 50 minutes following Raphael Varane's latest setback. Lindelof started the 3-2 win at Omonia Nicosia three days later, before then playing in a 2-1 victory over Everton.
