Benjamin Sesko will be out of action for «a few weeks» after suffering a knee injury before the international break, manager Ruben Amorim said on Friday.
Striker Sesko, who joined United from RB Leipzig for £74 million ($97 million) in August, was injured during the 2-2 draw against Tottenham on November 8. He failed to finish the match after coming on as a substitute in the second half.
The 22-year-old, who has scored just two Premier League goals this season, did not feature in Slovenia’s World Cup qualifiers.
“He will be away for a few weeks, I don’t know how long, but it is not that serious,” Amorim said at his pre-match press conference before the visit of Everton on Monday.
«We have to be careful with him. He will recover, he is recovering and feeling better. So in a few weeks I expect to have Ben (Sesko).»

United will also be without Harry Maguire at Old Trafford after the centre-back suffered an injury during the draw against Spurs.
Midfielder Kobbie Mainoo was absent for the trip to London but could be available to face David Moyes’ side and Lisandro Martinez is closing in on a return after being involved in the Argentina camp during the break.
United are seventh in the Premier League after a five-match unbeaten run, although they have drawn the last two against Nottingham Forest and Spurs.
