Matic, 30, will miss Serbia's matches against Montenegro and Romania due to an unspecified injury.

United have confirmed the player will return to the club "to complete his rehabilitation".

He is a doubt for their next Premier League clash which is against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on October 20.

Old Trafford manager Jose Mourinho could also be without Luke Shaw against Chelsea after the left-back returned to Manchester injured from England duty on Monday, ahead of the Three Lions' double-header internationals against Croatia and Spain.
