Manchester United will be without centre-back Lisandro Martinez through suspension when they resume their Europa League campaign next year.
The Argentine, who has been outstanding since joining the club from Ajax during the summer transfer window, was booked during the second half of Thursday night's Europa League clash with Real Sociedad in Spain. He was cautioned after flying into a challenge on striker Carlos Fernandez, although, on second viewing, it appeared a harsh decision.
Nevertheless, Martinez came off worse, requiring treatment from the United medical team. He was, however, able to continue.
