Man Utd defender Lisandro Martinez missed the 1-0 win over Everton on Monday evening.
The Argentinian international is believed to have suffered a minor calf strain, but he is expected to make a swift return to fitness.
Reports in the Argentinian media suggest that Martinez should be back in training at some point this week.
It remains to be seen whether the centre-back will be ready to return to the starting lineup for United’s next game this weekend.

Mason Mount
Manager Michael Carrick was initially hopeful of having the 26-year-old back in the matchday squad for the Everton game.
However, speaking last Friday in his pre-match press conference, Carrick hinted that Mount would not make the trip to Merseyside:
“Yeah, Mason is getting closer. I think we’ve been patient, so we don’t want to push anything. We want him back, and he can have a big impact. He’s getting closer, which is good for us.”
The England international is currently unavailable due to a knock he sustained in training, and he has missed the last four matches.
