Sesko was forced off during United’s 2-2 draw against Tottenham before the international break, limping down the tunnel after sustaining a discomfort that prevented him from continuing.

Although Amorim stressed the injury is “not that serious,” he admitted the club must proceed with caution.

“He’s going to stay a few weeks out. I don’t know how long,” the United manager said during Friday’s briefing. “We have to be careful. He’s feeling better. In a few weeks I expect to have Ben.”

The 21-year-old is not expected to return ahead of United’s trip to Crystal Palace on 30 November.

Amorim also confirmed that defender Harry Maguire remains unavailable, while midfielder Kobbie Mainoo is edging closer to a comeback.

Mainoo did not train on Friday but is expected to rejoin team sessions on Saturday.

“[Harry] Maguire is not ready, Kobbie didn’t train today but maybe tomorrow. We’ll see,” Amorim added.
