Manchester United's Luke Shaw will miss the start of the Premier League season and could be sidelined for four weeks after suffering a hamstring injury, the club said on the Wednesday.
The 19-year-old left back, who arrived at Old Trafford from Southampton in June for around 30 million pounds, is yet to make his competitive debut for United.
Shaw, a member of England's World Cup squad who earned his third cap in the goalless draw against Costa Rica, missed United's final pre-season friendly against Valencia on Tuesday.
He faces a wait of up to a month to make his first start and new United manager Louis van Gaal has a selection headache following the departure of experienced left back Patrice Evra to Juventus.
United kick off the Premier League season against Swansea City at Old Trafford on Saturday.

Manchester United have released Danish goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard from his contract, according to media reports.
Sunnmorsposten, a newspaper based in Aalesund where Lindegaard played before joining United in 2010, reported that the player had been let go by the Premier League club and that his agent, Michael Stensgaard, would be making a statement later on Wednesday.
"Spread your wings and fly #mufc #fly #manchesterunited," tweeted the 30-year-old Lindegaard, seemingly confirming his imminent exit from Old Trafford, where he battled with Spain's David de Gea for the position of first-choice keeper.
He made 29 first-team appearances.
