Edinson Cavani inches closer to return to Manchester United selection as Uruguayan trains with team-mates for first time since November - but forward will NOT be available to Ralf Rangnick for Young Boys clash tonight

Manchester United forward Edinson Cavani has revealed he is closer to returning to first-team action after over a month out with a tendon injury.

The forward hasn't featured since playing against Atalanta on November 2 - he scored a goal in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's last win as United boss on October 31 against Tottenham.

The 34-year-old is however back in training, as he revealed himself on Twitter with a post saying 'already training with the group', but tonight's Champions League game against Young Boys comes too soon.
