Manchester United coach Michael Carrick is working one-on-one with Paul Pogba, it has been revealed.

The unprecedented postponement of football last Friday has given United more time to get Pogba back to full fitness with the hope that the midfielder will be available when football returns.

According to The Athletic, Pogba is taking part in personal coaching sessions with United first-team coach Carrick, away from the main group of players.

The duo have undergone ball work as coaching staff look to optimise Pogba's mobility in the problematic ankle as well as getting his fitness up to scratch.

His right ankle has yet to be tested with full contact, the report states, while the midfielder is said to be a touch rusty as he makes his return to training.
