Carrick to turn out for Man Utd U21s today

Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick is set to continue his recovery today.

The Daily Mail says Carrick will continue his recovery from ankle ligament damage on Friday. The 33-year-old has been out since July but is due to play for United's U21s against West Ham United at Rush Green.

The England midfielder was an unused substitute for Monday night's 2-2 draw at West Bromwich Albion and was expected to be part of the squad to face Chelsea at Old Trafford on Sunday.

The time for recovery between games means he will likely take his place on the bench once again rather than figure from the start against Jose Mourinho's title chasers.
