Manchester United defender Victor Lindelof is back in full training and expected to make a prompt comeback after Leny Yoro suffered an injury during their preseason tour of the United States.
Lindelof hasn’t participated in United’s first three friendlies of their summer preparations in order to increase his fitness. He has one year left on his contract and has been linked to a departure to free up cash.

The Swede has since resumed full training at United’s UCLA base in California and United stated that he may be available for Wednesday’s friendly against Real Betis.
Manager Erik ten Hag will appreciate that while he awaits word on Yoro’s injury’s severity, reports Standard
The 18-year-old was pulled off during the first half of Sunday’s loss to Arsenal in Los Angeles. He had joined for £52 million a fortnight earlier from Lille.
Ten Hag acknowledges that they were “careful” with him since “he only did 50% of the (training) sessions,” but given that United is playing their bitter rivals Liverpool on Saturday, it doesn’t seem probable that they would take a chance on him against Betis.
Man Utd is also awaiting word on Rasmus Hojlund, their striker, who was substituted against Arsenal due to what looked to be a hamstring issue.
