SHAW AND YOUNG SET TO RETURN FROM INJURY

Jose Mourinho has provided a positive update on long-term absentees Luke Shaw and Ashley Young, by revealing both will play for Manchester United’s Under-23s on Monday, live on MUTV.
Shaw has not played since last season’s Premier League match against Saturday's opponents Swansea City on 30 April, while Young has been absent since the UEFA Europa League semi-final tie at Celta Vigo on 4 May. 
Both players travelled to America in the summer for Tour 2017, presented by Aon, to continue their rehabilitation as part of the squad. They each returned to full training in the last week and will be back on the pitch with the Under-23s on Monday, against Swansea at Leigh Sports Village (19:00 BST kick-off).
Asked for an update on the squad, Jose told MUTV: “Everybody is fine. The next week, on Monday, in the Under-23s game, Luke Shaw and Ashley Young are playing their first minutes of competition this season. 
"It is like a pre-season match for them. But it is good news because, when they can play with the Under-23s, it is because the last week they trained with us all week so they are both coming [back].” 
Monday's Under-23s match against Swansea will be shown exclusively live on MUTV.
