Man Utd star returns to training after hamstring injury

Manchester United forward Anthony Martial has returned to team training following a hamstring injury.

The France international suffered the setback in the final game of the 2022/23 Premier League season against Fulham.

As a result, he has not played any part in pre-season, but could be involved in the lead-up to the new campaign.

Martial has started training with his teammates, but manager Erik ten Hag is expected to handle him with caution.

The Frenchman missed a staggering 29 games last term, and the manager does not want to risk another setback.

He is prepared to give him sufficient time on the training pitch before reintroducing him on the playing field.

United recently secured a third-straight victory in pre-season. They sealed a comfortable 2-0 win over rivals Arsenal.

The Red Devils are scheduled to face Real Madrid on Wednesday night. 

Jadon Sancho has been playing in the false nine role lately, and he could continue in the position against Los Blancos.
