Anthony Martial Injury: Manchester United Winger Injures Calf Ahead of Leicester

Manchester United forward Anthony Martial will sit out the team's clash with Leicester City on Saturday due to a calf problem.

His manager Jose Mourinho confirmed the knock on Friday at his weekly press conference, per BBC Sport's Simon Stone:

Also, Anthony Martial out of @ManUtd v @LCFC: "Not concussion. Out because of contusion in the calf and ankle area."
