Hurt Sesko to Miss Slovenia Matches but United Optimistic of Swift Comeback

Striker Sesko will be absent from Slovenia's forthcoming matches against Kosovo and Sweden due to a knee injury suffered during the recent game at Tottenham. Nonetheless, the club remains hopeful that he could be back soon enough to play against the Everton side following the international break.

Knock Particulars and Timeline

The forward had to come off in the 87th minute of the Saturday 2-2 stalemate against Spurs having been introduced in the 58th minute replacing Noussair Mazraoui. Manager Ruben Amorim voiced worry post-match, leading to the player's pull-out from the Slovenia squad.

Manchester United will carry out additional examinations at their Carrington facility in the coming days, but early indications point to a possible return ahead of the Everton on 24 November.

Additional Team News

Maguire and Casemiro also had to leave the field during the Tottenham match. While the defender's status is yet to be determined, it is understood that Casemiro is fit and has reported for national team commitments for Brazil.

Lisandro Martínez, who has been sidelined since suffering a knee issue in February, will travel to the Argentine squad at their European training camp. But, the center-back will not feature in Friday's friendly versus Angola in Luanda. A staff member of the club's medical staff will accompany Martínez, who recently returned to training with the first-team group.
