Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says he does not expect captain Harry Maguire to be fit enough to play in Wednesday's Europa League final with Villarreal in Gdansk.

Maguire, 28, suffered an ankle ligament injury against Aston Villa on 9 May.

The England defender attended a screening of Sir Alex Ferguson's film at Old Trafford on Thursday without crutches, sparking hope he may be fit.

"He is walking but it is a long way from that to running," said Solskjaer.

"We will give him every chance but I don't think we will see him in Gdansk. Steadily but surely he is improving but ligaments take time to heal."

Solskjaer said even if he is not fit, Maguire will still be in Poland and play an important part in United's preparations as they try to win their first trophy since 2017.
