Manchester United’s players are set to be back in training this weekend as they gear up for their return to action after the international break.
Many of the players have taken the opportunity to head out on their holidays, some are on international duty, while others have been hard at work in preparation for their return to Carrington.
And when they make their way back to training, there could be some familiar names looking to get back in contention, with Paul Pogba, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw all looking to prove their fitness before next week’s FA Cup clash with Middlesbrough.
Here’s the latest on the injury front for United’s players, and when they could make their returns:

The midfielder has been missing since suffering a thigh injury while out on international duty with France in November.
Pogba was expected to be out for another few weeks, but has been pictured back in training with his team-mates, suggesting he could be closer than first anticipated.
Ralf Rangnick backed that up, saying last week: "Hopefully after the international break, when we have the cup game against Middlesbrough and the away game at Burnley, I think he could be an option."
All the signs are that Pogba could be back immediately, and he’s been out in Dubai this week as he’s been put through his paces during his week off.
Possible return date: February 4
