Manchester United midfielder Christian Eriksen returns to first-team training after being sidelined for the last month through injury.

Christian Eriksen has returned to Manchester United training after being sidelined for the last month through injury.

The 31-year-old has missed Man United's last seven matches in all competitions after pulling up during the 1-0 win against Luton Town at Old Trafford in mid-November.

Eriksen was an important part of Erik ten Hag's midfield before sustaining his injury and made 15 appearances in all competitions, scoring one goal and providing two assists.

The Dane is nearing a return to full fitness and may be available for selection against West Ham United at the London Stadium on Saturday, having completed a week of training.

Scott McTominay, Sofyan Amrabat and Kobbie Mainoo formed Manchester United's midfield trio at Anfield on Sunday, highlighting the limited options available to The Red Devils at the moment.

Casemiro, Lisandro Martinez, Tyrell Malacia, Harry Maguire, Mason Mount, Victor Lindelof and Amad Diallo are among those who may miss the trip to the London Stadium this weekend.

Martinez is back on the grass, and Casemiro has been spotted in individual training, though neither is expected to return to first-team action until the New Year.

Ten Hag is expected to provide the latest team news update when he addresses journalists at Carrington on Friday afternoon.
