Matic out for two to three weeks after training-ground injury

Nemanja Matic is out of Manchester United’s Premier League clash with Liverpool on Sunday and is set to miss multiple weeks of action due to injury.

The Serbia international midfielder has been one of the mainstays of the United midfield this season under both Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his predecessor Jose Mourinho.

But United will face Liverpool with Scott McTominay in the centre of the park in Matic’s place after the former Chelsea man pulled up with an injury in training on Saturday.
