Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is hoping to welcome Edinson Cavani back into the first team "soon", following a spell on the sidelines.
The 34-year-old has featured for just 37 minutes so far this campaign, coming off the bench in the win at Wolverhampton Wanderers last month.
Cavani missed the Red Devils' 4-1 victory over Newcastle United last weekend due to a knock, and is also ruled out of their opening Champions League game away against Young Boys on Tuesday, however Solskjaer has confirmed that the Uruguayan's return is imminent.
"Edi is hopefully back with us soon. He had a slight strain in the international week after the in-house game, he's working hard to get back," Solskjaer told the Manchester Evening News.
Cavani, who is not to travel with the rest of the squad to Bern this week, has been seen with the ball in training and will continue to build up his fitness throughout the rest of this week.
The veteran striker, who will now wear the number 21 shirt following the arrival of number 7 Cristiano Ronaldo, has featured 40 times across all competitions since joining the club last season, scoring 17 goals. body check tags ::
