Manchester United assistant manager Mike Phelan has hailed the effort Phil Jones is putting into his fitness recovery.

Jones last kicked a ball for the Reds against Tranmere in the FA Cup in January 2020.

United's assistant manager Phelan said he's the hardest worker in the gym, telling Sensible Soccer: "They all go in the gym now, it's part of their training programme. Some love it, some hate it.

"But I think in the gym, right now, the people in the gym the most are usually the injured ones. That is a real thing they have to do in order to recover. For us right now, credit to him as well, Phil Jones has been in that recovery phase quite a lot.

"He's worked extremely hard and it's mind-blowing at times because you're doing it on your own, so credit to him. Phil Jones has been terrific in the gym."
