The Tottenham striker "suffered an injury to his lower jaw on Saturday against Manchester United," the FFF said.
Kolo Muani was replaced at half-time as Tottenham drew with United in the Premier League.
After the game, Tottenham manager Thomas Frank did not specify the 26-year-old Frenchman's injury, saying only that it was "nothing big".

Kolo Muani became the latest attacking casualty for France coach Didier Deschamps.

Victory over Ukraine on November 13 at the Parc des Princes would ensure France's qualification for the tournament in North America.
