Manchester United are seeking a buyer for Phil Jones this summer.

The Mirror says United have decided against operating on the knee injury that will sideline Jones for the Europa League – after being told that surgery would rule the defender out of action until the New Year.

Jones was set to go under the knife on Sunday after suffering another major fitness set-back during lockdown.

But the prognosis that the 28-year-old would then be out of action for up to five months has prompted Old Trafford's medics to look towards a programme of rehabilitation instead.

United are trying to find a buyer for the England international, who arrived at the club from Blackburn in a £16.5million deal 11 years ago.

And another lengthy spell on the sidelines would put off any potential suitors.
