Manchester United's Edinson Cavani could be unavailable for United's match against Leicester on Saturday afternoon.
Cavani joined up with Uruguay for the international break and he started for his nation against Chile on Tuesday night, but he didn't last long in that World Cup qualifier match. Cavani sustained an injury and was substituted off in less than 30 minutes.
The centre-forward was replaced by Luis Suarez and Uruguay subsequently qualified for the 2022 Qatar World Cup. Cavani's season has been plagued by injury concerns and this week's setback is the latest in an extensive catalogue of issues.

The extent of the injury is officially unknown, but it seems unlikely Cavani will feature against Leicester at Old Trafford this weekend.
Cavani has been unavailable for 23 games from a possible 40 fixtures across all competitions for United this season. That means he's been out of contention to play for United in around 50 per cent of their games, which is frustrating for supporters.
Cavani turned 35 on Valentine's Day last month and he's set to leave United on a free transfer at the end of the season when his contract expires.
The player was understood to be keen on a return to South America before extending his United contract, but reports have also suggested Cavani has attracted interest from La Liga in Spain, though his injury record might worry any potential suitor.
