Man Utd boss Mourinho tells Swedish TV: This is when Ibrahimovic will play...

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has allayed fresh fitness concerns for Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The Swede is yet to start a game for United since his comeback from serious knee injury last month.

However, after victory at West Brom on Sunday, Mourinho assured fans Ibrahimovic was in good shape and set to make his first start since his April surgery.

Speaking with Viasat Football, Mourinho was asked if Ibrahimovic will be seen in the Carabao Cup tie Wednesday against Bristol City.

"Yes," was the manager's reply before he turned on his heel and left the interview.
