Manchester United transfer target Aymeric Laporte suffers horror injury on international duty [GRAPHIC]

Nasty blow

This could well scupper any move away from Athletic Bilbao this summer.

Aymeric Laporte suffered a horrific leg break whilst on international duty for France U21s.

The defender went to ground clutching his face after being hit by a stray arm. Laporte went to plant his foot on the turf but it gave way and left him in a heap.

After several minutes of on-field treatment, he needed to be stretchered off.
