"I don't know," Solskjaer said when asked if Maguire might play Manchester City.

"We almost pulled him in the first round against Wolves, but he fought hard," Solskjaer was quoted as saying by BolaSport.com from the official Manchester United website.

"Now we will see if he can recover soon. We hope so."
