Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirms left back Alex Telles will be out until September after sustaining ankle injury during pre-season training camp

Manchester United left back Alex Telles will miss the start of the Premier League season due to an ankle injury, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed.

The Brazilian sustained the problem during the club's training camp in Surrey last week and returned home from his duties, missing Saturday's friendly defeat against QPR.

Solskjaer initially said Telles would be 'out for a few weeks' but the United manager has since given a disappointing update, revealing he is now set to miss the first three games of the Premier League season in August.
