CONNOR STANLEY trained with Manchester United’s first-team for the first time ahead of Thursday’s clash against Club Brugge.
The unknown 18-year-old got stuck in at Carrington as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer welcomed back a few familiar faces for the Europa League tie.
Stanley was one of 24 United players that trained on Tuesday including new boy Odion Ighalo.
The right winger has proved his potential since he joined the Red Devils from Birmingham in 2018.
And he’s earned his call-up to first-team training despite not yet playing for the Under-23s in a competitive game.
He made 11 appearances for the Under-18s last season and has made five more this term.
Stanley was joined by Scott McTominay – who has been out since Boxing Day with a knee injury.
The Scotland midfielder, 23, was eased back into training during the winter break before making his full return.
Victor Lindelof was also back in action after he missed Monday’s impressive 2-0 win over Chelsea due to illness.
He is in contention to make the starting XI for the highly-anticipated clash at the Jan Breydel Stadium.
United also welcomed back Axel Tuanzebe – who has been out of action since he injured his hamstring before the Liverpool game.
Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood and Paul Pogba were the most noticeable absentees on Wednesday morning.
Pogba is due to see doctors at the end of the week to discuss whether he is fit to return from his ankle injury.
Solskjaer was all smiles as his team performed a number of drills and light warm-up exercises.
The Red Devils boss even sported a black beanie completed with initials sewn on the front.
