- Social media post reveals latest on defender's recovery

Leny Yoro continues to make progress on his recovery from foot surgery as he approaches his long-awaited return to Manchester United.
The exciting summer signing went down injured in pre-season and underwent surgery to address the issue, leaving him facing three months on the sidelines.
Yoro is expected back in action in November, and all signs suggest he will meet that target after United posted a video of the French defender running on a treadmill.
"On the way back," Yoro captioned the video.
United boss Erik ten Hag has repeatedly stressed that Yoro is meeting all of his fitness targets but he will be reluctant to rush the 18-year-old back to action after so long on the sidelines.
The Red Devils are also without Harry Maguire, who is set for a few weeks out of action with an injury of his own.
Summer signing Matthijs de Ligt remains available alongside regular defensive partner Lisandro Martinez, but veteran Jonny Evans may be in line for more minutes after impressing against Aston Villa.
