Gayle had been handed his first start in more than a month after recovering from a hamstring problem.
But the striker limped off in the 33rd minute after signalling to the bench.
United manager Rafa Benitez said: "It’s the same problem. He’ll miss some games but hopefully it’s not too bad."
Gayle was replaced by Aleksandar Mitrovic.
