Kobbie Mainoo is training again and could face Chelsea on Saturday after a muscle injury kept him out of four games. His return gives Michael Carrick a midfield option at a time when United have not won in eight matches and Benjamin Šeško faces a long lay-off.
Kobbie Mainoo is back in contention for United’s Premier League game at Chelsea on Saturday. The midfielder had been sidelined for four games with a muscle injury.
Michael Carrick has not ruled him out of the matchday squad. The head coach sees his return as a big positive. Carrick told reporters that Mainoo had done a small amount of training the day before and was back around the group.
