Manchester United pair Amad Diallo and Matthijs de Ligt have returned to training before the Europa League semi-final first leg at Athletic Bilbao.

Diallo has been out since February with an ankle injury, while De Ligt has missed a month with the same, albeit less serious, issue.

Their return is welcome news for head coach Ruben Amorim given the importance of the game.

Wing-backs Patrick Dorgu and Noussair Mazraoui did separate warm-ups but neither is thought to be an injury concern for the trip to Spain.

Young midfielder Toby Collyer trained away from the main group as he continues his recovery from what Amorim has described as a "small leg issue" that has kept him out for a month.
