The 25-year-old was substituted in the 88th minute of the Red Devils’ 2-1 win over Barcelona in the Europa League on Thursday, and following the game posted a cryptic social media message to suggest a fitness concern.
And Erik ten Hag failed to eliminate any injury fears during Friday’s pre-match press conference.
“I don’t know,” the Dutch boss said. “The players now are coming in, we have to do investigations. Of course we did straight after the game, but most of the time you have to wait for a 100 per-cent diagnosis. We have to wait.”
Ten Hag ruled out Anthony Martial as he continues his recovery from a hip injury. Christan Eriksen and Donny van de Beek are long-term absences.
Summer signing Antony could be recalled after scoring the deciding goal against Barca on his return from a dead leg.
