Manchester United forward Matheus Cunha missed a Christmas lights switch-on event in Altrincham due to an "accident in training" on Saturday.
Organisers of the 'Neon Noel' event announced Cunha's absence on social media, stating he could not attend for medical reasons.
The incident has raised concerns about Cunha's availability for Manchester United's upcoming Premier League match against Everton.
Cunha was originally scheduled to switch on the lights with actor Sam Aston from Coronation Street.
His potential absence adds to Manchester United's existing squad strain, with several other key players already injured or unavailable.
