Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits Paul Pogba may be out for the remainder of the month.

Pogba, 27, came off in the 39th minute of the 3-3 Premier League draw with Everton on Saturday and will miss the FA Cup fifth round visit of West Ham, league fixtures against West Brom and Newcastle, as well as the Europa League round-of-32 ties with Real Sociedad.

The France midfielder could recover in time for United's trip to Chelsea on February 28.

“It's an injury that will take a few weeks to heal," Solskjaer told MUTV. “He's just started his recovery, working with the medical staff and we'll get him back as soon and as safely as we can.

“Of course, Paul has been very important for us and we're not going to take any risks. [He's out for] a few weeks, definitely.

“You never want to be injured and, especially, now Paul was really finding his form and enjoying his football. For us, we just have to take as many points and wins as possible, when you lose players.

“We've been very healthy and strong for a long period so we can't moan too much."
