Sanchez was injured during Saturday's win against Southampton

Manchester United forward Alexis Sanchez will be out for "four to six weeks" with a knee injury, says interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The Chile striker, 30, was substituted after 52 minutes in United's 3-2 win over Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday.

It had been suggested by Chile's medical team that Sanchez would be sidelined for up to two months.

"It's a bad knee injury. Hopefully he will recover quickly," said Solskjaer.

Manchester United visit Paris St-Germain in the Champions League's last 16 on Wednesday, trailing 2-0 from the first leg at Old Trafford.
