Manchester United forward Jesse Lingard is isolating after the club confirmed he has tested positive for Covid-19.

Manchester United start their Premier League campaign against Leeds at Old Trafford next Saturday.

Lingard appears set to see more regular action for United this season, after he was sent on loan to West Ham last January.

The 28-year-old made a huge impact with the Hammers, helping them to finish sixth in the table.
