Tom Cleverley wary of 'injury-prone' tag

Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley hopes that he isn't known as an "injury-prone" footballer after a number of months on the sidelines last season.

Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley has admitted that he doesn't want to be known as an "injury-prone" footballer.

Despite a promising start to last season, the 22-year-old was forced to sit on the sidelines for most of the campaign with an ankle problem.

"I'd hate to be getting the injury-prone tag because the injuries I've had have all been contact, impact or reckless tackles," he told United's official website. "It's not like I'm picking up hamstring injuries or thigh injuries all the time."

Cleverley made his first-team debut for the Red Devils last term following loan spells with Leicester City, Watford and Wigan Athletic.
