Ralf Rangnick, United Manager, said that he had spoken to the player in detail following the break-in
“He told me that right now he needs to be at home.

“We have agreed to let him not train today or tomorrow.
Lindelof had a tough few months at Old Trafford. Due to serious breathing issues, Lindelof was forced against Norwich on December 27.
Maja suffered from a serious health problem last month when Lindelof was injured during United’s match.
After visibly clutching his chest at the touchline in the second half clash at Carrow Road during the first half, the centre-back was soon subject to a series examinations.
United was quick to insist that the heart condition wasn’t related to the Covid-19 virus at the club.
According to his wife, the incident caused them distress.
“It’s a frightening match to see and Victor was extremely cut up after,” she wrote.
Lindelof fell to his knees and complained about breathing problems against Norwich
“Yesterday, he went through a number of tests. He has had a heart monitor for the past two days so that everything is in order.
It was very uncomfortable especially because I could not reach him as I do always.
“It took me a while before someone from the team updated me.
His teammates were worried and ran to his rescue when he collapsed under no pressure. The pitch was also evacuated quickly by medics as he pointed towards his chest.
