Raphael Varane was forced off injured for France in a major injury blow for Manchester United, who face a hectic schedule in the coming weeks.
Varane started for France against Spain in the UEFA Nations League final, but did not last the half.
He appeared to suffer a suspected hamstring injury before the break, with Didier Deschamps taking no risks - immediately subbing him off.
Varane's injury scare is not good news for Man United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who is already under pressure and preparing his side for a brutal run of fixtures.
Solskjaer is also currently without captain Harry Maguire, who was ruled out against Everton.
