Paul Pogba has returned to Manchester United training after recovering from coronavirus.

The 27-year-old was forced to withdraw from the France squad for their Nations League double-header against Sweden and Croatia after testing positive for COVID-19 last month.

However, he has now completed his isolation period and returned to training with his club ahead of the new campaign.

United were given an extended break due to their involvement in the latter stages of the Europa League last season, meaning that they will not be in competitive action this weekend.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side will instead take on Aston Villa in a friendly, although it is unclear whether Pogba will be part of the squad for that encounter.

United's first game of the new Premier League season comes on September 19 against Crystal Palace.
