Sesko to miss Bmouth clash?

Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko may not return in time for the Premier League clash against Bournemouth at Old Trafford on Monday night.

The Slovenian picked up a knee injury against Tottenham Hotspur before the last international break and has yet to return to team training.

He recently returned to working on the grass, but was not spotted with the first-team group in Thursday's training session, as per reports.

Joshua Zirkzee and Matheus Cunha have shared the duties upfront in recent games and it could be the same against the Cherries on Monday.

United are presently one point behind the Champions League places and have the opportunity to break into the top four with a winning run.

They face a tricky challenge on their hands with Bournemouth, Aston Villa and Newcastle United to face in the next few weeks.

Sesko seems unlikely to be involved against the Cherries, but could return to the matchday squad against Villa or Newcastle.
