Manchester United expect striker Benjamin Sesko to remain sidelined until at least January as he recovers from a persistent shin injury. The 23-year-old has made only six appearances this season and has missed recent matches; the club is consulting specialists and is opting for further rest, with no decision made on surgery. His absence leaves United short of natural center-forward options during a difficult run of form, increasing pressure on manager Michael Carrick and potentially prompting the club to seek a striker in the January transfer window.

No center coverage yet — a bubble gap.
Carrick needs better forward options fast or the pressure from these results will keep building.
Rest and specialist care sound sensible for the shin but January is a long wait for the squad.
United really can't afford to lose Sesko with no other proper strikers fit and results slipping.
