Man Utd captain Maguire to start at Leicester

Manchester United captain Harry Maguire is set to start today at Leicester City.

The Manchester Evening News says Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will name Maguire in United's starting XI for the Reds' Premier League clash against Leicester despite the centre-back having only returned to full training on Friday afternoon.

Maguire was forced off the pitch in United's 1-0 defeat against Aston Villa last month and he was subsequently sidelined with a calf injury that he sustained in that match, which caused him to be absent for England's recent World Cup qualifiers.

Solskjaer confirmed that Maguire had returned to full training on grass at Carrington on Friday morning, though.
