Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson has confirmed that Elliot Lee and Ryan Hardie sat out the club's pre-season victory over Manchester United due to injury, according to BBC News.
The Welsh side edged the Red Devils 1-0 in a friendly staged in Helsinki, Finland, but did so without two key attacking options. Lee, 31, and Hardie, 29, were left out of the travelling squad for the trip, though Parkinson had previously named them in his wider group before the injuries ruled them out.
With pre-season now well underway, Parkinson will be keen to have both forwards available as Wrexham build toward their next campaign, though no timeline for their return has been given.
Beating a Premier League giant like Manchester United, even in a friendly, will still be viewed as a significant marker for a club continuing to make headlines on and off the pitch — this time doing so despite missing two of its senior attacking players through injury.
