Manchester United left-back Tyrell Malacia will not be ready until the start of next season.

The Dutch defender's difficult recovery from a double knee surgery has kept him out all campaign.

Per The Mail, Malacia does not have any mental problems, only physical ones.

A report that emerged from a German outlet has been rubbished by United and Malacia.

The 24-year-old wants to get back to full fitness, but knows he must be cautious.

Two surgeries on a single knee have meant that he has not been able to get back as quickly as he had hoped.
