Jesse Lingard and Edinson Cavani will return to the Manchester United squad for Tuesday's Premier League clash with Burnley.

Jesse Lingard and Edinson Cavani will return to the Manchester United squad for Tuesday's Premier League clash with Burnley at Turf Moor.

Lingard missed out against Middlesbrough on Friday evening in order to 'clear his head', having been denied the chance to leave Old Trafford during the January transfer window.

Meanwhile, Cavani was absent for the FA Cup contest after being given extra time to recover following his involvement for Uruguay over the international break.

However, both players will be back in the squad for Tuesday's Premier League clash, Red Devils head coach Ralf Rangnick confirmed at his pre-match press conference.

"They're both available and will both be part of the squad for tomorrow's game at Burnley. Both are top professionals, both have been training well," Rangnick told reporters.

"With regards to Jesse, I have a very good relationship with him, he knows I would have been willing to let him go at least until the issue with Mason [Greenwood] came up, he mentioned some personal issues.

"We have to look forward now, there are no problems whatsoever between myself and Jesse and vice versa. I'm very happy to have him in the squad and he'll be in the squad for tomorrow night's game."

Man United are currently fourth in the Premier League table with 38 points to show from 22 matches, one point ahead of fifth-placed West Ham United.
