Manchester United stars Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba will return to pre-season training in another week's time, according to the Manchester Evening News.
Fernandes and Pogba both featured at Euro 2020 for Portugal and France respectively and are currently on holiday. Manchester United will also be without Donny van de Beek and Anthony Martial for at least another week.
Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed the pair are still not 100% but will return to training on Monday. Pogba and Fernandes, meanwhile, will return a week later. Solskjaer said:
"They're not ready yet. They'll probably be 100 per cent training with us a week on Monday. They're still working hard to step into the group. Fernandes and Pogba? It won't be next week, no. The week after."
