Jesse Lingard and Anthony Martial are closing in on quick returns from injury and may be back involved by the end of next week, a report claims.

Manchester United are reportedly hopeful of having Anthony Martial and Jesse Lingard back available for selection earlier than expected.

Both players limped off the field during the first half of the Red Devils' Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain earlier this week.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer revealed after the match that the pair would be out for up to three weeks, ruling them out of key games with Chelsea, Liverpool, Crystal Palace and Southampton.

According to The Mirror, however, Martial's groin problem and the hamstring issue sustained by Lingard are not as bad as first thought and they are already close to a return.

One or both of the attacking players could be back as early as next Sunday's Premier League clash with Liverpool, it is claimed, handing Solskjaer a massive boost.

United went on to lose 2-0 to PSG in Martial and Lingard's absence, with the second leg of the last-16 tie to take place at the Parc des Princes on March 6.
