Harry Maguire: Manchester United captain out for 'few weeks' with calf a injury

Harry Maguire has started all of Manchester United's Premier League matches this term

Manchester United captain Harry Maguire is facing a "few weeks" out with a calf injury, says boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The defender limped off in United's Premier League defeat by Aston Villa last Saturday.

"Harry is more or less definitely out. It doesn't look good," said Solskjaer.

"It's his calf. That might take a few weeks, so let's see how quickly he recovers. Of course he was hoping to play against Villarreal - he missed the last game we played against them [in the Europa League final in May]."

The severity of Maguire's injury means he is unlikely to be included when Gareth Southgate announces his Three Lions squad on Thursday.
