Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirmed last Friday, ahead of the Premier League game with Chelsea, that Jesse had suffered a knock and would miss the encounter.
“Jesse won’t be available so we’ll manage without them for a few weeks I think,”
the boss said during the pre-match press conference.
The injury also forced Jesse to be left out of our squad for Wednesday’s 5-0 victory over RB Leipzig in the Champions League and he will not have recovered in time for the visit of Arsenal on Sunday.
However, our no.14 has began training separately from the rest of his United team-mates as he continues his recovery from the knock.
