Man Utd handed huge injury boost for Bournemouth clash

Sesko set to return for Man Utd after injury

Manchester United have been handed a huge injury boost ahead of the Premier League clash against Bournemouth on Monday night.

The Red Devils have had a mixed start to the league season, but they have still picked up 25 points from 15 games. The club are just one point adrift of the Champions League places.

United are scheduled to face the Cherries next and ahead of the encounter, Sesko has returned to working on the grass after a knee injury against Tottenham Hotspur last month.

The striker is likely to return to team training in the coming days and could make the matchday squad on Monday. Sesko may not start but may be introduced in a cameo role if required.

United will be without Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo due to Africa Cup of Nations duty after the Bournemouth game. Sesko's timely return is a huge boost for the Mancunian giants.

Joshua Zirkzee and Matheus Cunha have shared the duties upfront in recent matches, but Sesko could establish himself again as the undisputed striker once he is up to full match fitness.
