Manchester United handed fresh Edinson Cavani injury blow after Uruguay appearance

Manchester United's Edinson Cavani could be unavailable for United's match against Leicester on Saturday afternoon.

Cavani joined up with Uruguay for the international break and he started for his nation against Chile on Tuesday night, but he didn't last long in that World Cup qualifier match. Cavani sustained an injury and was substituted off in less than 30 minutes.
