Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho says Paul Pogba will miss “a few matches” after suffering a hamstring injury.
The
influential Frenchman, 24, had to be withdrawn after just 19 minutes
during United's Champions League victory over Basel on Tuesday after
sustaining the muscular problem.
Pogba,
who has played a key role in United's unbeaten start to the new Premier
League season, was pictured leaving Old Trafford after the game on
crutches.
Mourinho
has confirmed the Frenchman is definitely ruled out of Sunday's league
clash against Everton and expects the midfielder to sit out of a couple
of other games.
"I don't know," said Mourinho when asked how long Pogba would be out for ahead of the Everton game.
"I
just know that it's a muscular injury, he's out for the weekend match,
that's the only match I'm thinking about. I don't think further than
that.
"So for me, it's simple and objective: He's not playing this weekend. I just know it's a hamstring problem.
“I don't know how many [games], but we are going to play without Pogba for a few matches but we have other players."
