Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay could be out for a "couple of weeks" after he injured his ankle during their win over Brighton.
The 22-year-old played a key role in United's comfortable 3-1 victory in the Premier League at Old Trafford on Sunday before limping off near the end.
McTominay's injury will be assessed on Monday, with his involvement in Scotland's European Qualifiers against Cyprus and Kazakhstan seemingly in doubt.
