Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has dismissed concerns over Owen Hargreaves' long-term fitness.

Hargreaves is currently undergoing his rehabilitation after surgery on both of his knees to fix a long-standing problem.

There have been reports that the most recent operation has not been a complete success and it had placed a question mark over Hargreaves being fit for the start of the next campaign.

Ferguson has moved to quash the rumours and believes the 28-year-old is on course to be back in the Premier League leaders' plans over the summer.

The United chief said in the Daily Mail: "His operations have gone perfectly well, he's feeling good."
