Man Utd manager Solskjaer provides positive update on Martial

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Anthony Martial has stepped up his recovery from a knee injury.

The Frenchman has not featured for United since suffering the injury on international duty in late March.

Speaking ahead of Thursday's Europa League semi-final second leg with Roma, in which they hold a 6-2 lead, Solskjaer said: "Anthony's looking good.

"He has just about started outside jogging, which is the first step on the rehab of course.

"He's done most of the work in the gym and to see him out there getting some fresh air is good and hopefully we will see him before the season is out.

"He's supporting the team, he wants to be a part of the final and he's working hard to be available before that."
