New Manchester United striker Edinson Cavani’s debut is likely to be delayed by Covid-19 regulations.
The Uruguayan, who joined United on Monday, left Paris St-Germain in June and has not been part of squad.
It means Cavani, 33, has had to enter into a period of self-isolation following his arrival from France on Sunday, which should last 14 days.
United’s next game is away to Newcastle in the Premier League on 17 October.
It hampers United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who will also be without the suspended Anthony Martial for the trip to St James’ Park.
While Cavani self isolates, he would be unable to train with his teammates. This may further decrease his chances of selection for the Champions league game with former club PSG.
