Mourinho delivers injury update ahead of Burnley game

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has provided an injury update ahead of the Red Devils' away trip to Burnley on Sunday afternoon.

Speaking to MUTV, Mourinho confirmed that Marcos Rojo has returned to training after recovering from a knock sustained at the World Cup but he is unlikely to feature against the Clarets.

Aside from this, Phil Jones remains sidelined for the encounter after picking up a hamstring problem which he suffered during the 3-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.

Sergio Romero and Diogo Dalot have been the other two absentees for United since the start of the season but they have recently got their first taste of competitive action after participating for the United 23 side on Friday night.

United are presently in the lower end of the standings after picking up just one victory from their three matches and the game versus Burnley is supposedly a must-win, if they are to avoid dropping nine points behind the pace-setters at the top.
