Manchester United face an anxious wait to discover the severity of Christian Eriksen's ankle injury after he left Old Trafford at the end of Saturday night's 3-1 FA Cup win over Reading on crutches.
The Dane, who joined United on a free transfer last summer, was forced off shortly before the hour mark, having picked up a knock following a hefty challenge from Reading striker Andy Carroll, who was later sent-off for a crunching tackle on Casemiro. Eriksen was replaced by Fred, who went on to score United's third goal of the game.
Eriksen has been a virtually ever-present figure for United this season, racking up 31 appearances in all competitions. He has featured in all but one of the Reds' matches this season, only missing the goalless draw with Newcastle United back in October through illness.
