PARIS – Manchester United forward Alexis Sanchez faces up to six weeks out with a right knee injury.

The 30-year-old Sanchez was forced off during United’s 3-2 victory against Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday.

United caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says “it was a bad knee injury so if it’s four weeks or six, hopefully he’ll recover quickly.”
