Alex Telles sends message to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer amid return from injury | OneFootball

Manchester United full-back Alex Telles is set to return from injury following a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Telles has missed five games and almost 60 days in total after picking up an ankle injury during pre-season.

The Brazilian will be looking to kick on this season despite being a back-up to Luke Shaw, hoping to play a significant part given United have a busy season spread across four competitions.

And so the pre-season injury was a real blow, but he is now nearing a return having completed his rehabilitation and returning to training with his Manchester United teammates.

Speaking about his return, Telles sent a message to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, telling the club’s official website: “I feel good. Things happen in football. I wasn’t very happy about that [the injury] but I took advantage of the situation by working harder.
