Manchester United defender, Eric Bailly, will be out until the end of the year after suffering a knee injury, manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said.
Bailly got injured last Thursday during their 2-1 win over Tottenham in the International Champions Cup (ICC).
The 25-year-old had a successful knee surgery.
“He’s had an operation.
“He’ll miss the best part of four or five months. Hopefully, we’ll get him back around about Christmas.” Solskjaer said.
The Ivory Coast international missed United’s 1-0 win over Norwegian club, Kristiansund, in a friendly on Tuesday, July 30.
United’s next match is against AC Milan on Saturday in the ICC, their last pre-season encounter before facing Chelsea in their Premier League opener on Aug. 11.
