Manchester United boss Michael Carrick has given an optimistic fitness update on Leny Yoro ahead of Monday’s clash against Brentford.

Yoro missed United’s last outing against Chelsea with an injury sustained in training. Earlier today, United confirmed that the Frenchman was not part of the group that trained at Carrington.

However, Carrick has insisted that there is a chance he will be back and available for selection when the Bees make their way to Old Trafford.

Carrick told reporters, “We’re still working on that one, so there’s a possibility, but at this stage we’re not 100% sure.”

The United caretaker boss also offered an update on Patrick Dorgu, who has been sidelined since January with an injury he picked up in the 3- victory over Arsenal.

“Patrick’s working his way to being back, so I don’t want to get ahead of that one, but he’s certainly making good progress and back closer to training with us, which is positive.”
