"Of course, with Raphael Varane coming, I can let Axel go (on loan), because I have Varane, Maguire, Lindelof, and Eric Bailly and Phil Jones will be back," Solskjaer told Man Utd's website.

As for Jones, Solskjaer detailed the 29-year-old defender's situation: "He will start training at the weekend when we are full on Monday, which is a big plus for him. that"

“I have had similar problems in my career. He's such a talented, professional guy and it's great to see he's ready to train again. Hopefully, he can train with us first, and then hopefully Jones will be able to play soon."

“Jones has always served the club, there was a time when he had to take care of himself and his health, but now he is ready to train with us.”
