Phil Jones is in line to start for Manchester United tonight against Wolves.

The Athletic says United captain Harry Maguire will not feature in Monday's Old Trafford match with Wolves after picking up an injury against Burnley, with Jones in line to play his first Premier League game in two years.

Jones has not played a competitive game for United since the start of 2020, when he scored in the 6-1 FA Cup victory over Tranmere Rovers.

Since then, he has battled to overcome a knee injury, a time he has described as 'the lowest of his life' - but has since played in behind closed doors games as he looks to improve his fitness.

United's reported injury crisis will see Rangnick choose between several back-up options to partner Raphael Varane in central defence, after the Frenchman was rested for the win over Burnley.
