Manchester United will have Mason Mount and captain Bruno Fernandes available for Wednesday’s Premier League match at Burnley in an immediate boost for newly appointed interim manager Darren Fletcher.
Speaking in his first pre-match press conference since he replaced sacked head coach Ruben Amorim on Monday, Fletcher said the pair were fit and should be back in the squad after returning from injury.
Fernandes picked up a hamstring injury before Christmas while Mount was injured the day after. Both missed the 1-1 draw at Leeds United on Sunday although Fletcher said both had been pushing to play.
“They’ll be on managed minutes and restricted minutes because they have only just returned to training so that is good news, especially because they are players who have been in good form,” he added.
