Manchester United might not make a late addition to their squad but one player's return might feel like a new signing.

Luke Shaw , who broke his leg over four months ago, was spotted leaving the club's Carrington training ground ahead of United's Tuesday night Premier League home game against Stoke.

Injured trio Shaw, Ashley Young and Matteo Darmian all reported at the club's training complex on transfer deadline day, as they continued their rehabilitation.

Shaw was in superb form before he suffered a double fracture to his right leg, following a challenge from PSV Eindhoven defender Hector Moreno in United's Champions League group stage defeat in September.

Young, sidelined with a groin injury, and Shaw could be available for selection again in March, while Darmian remains a doubt for Stoke's visit.

David de Gea and Juan Mata often journey into Carrington together and were in the goalkeeper's Mercedes when they left in the afternoon.

The prospect of any new arrivals at United is unlikely, despite their interest in loaning a right-back .

Van Gaal has repeatedly stated his desire to sign a full-back in the winter transfer window, however the emergence of Cameron Borthwick-Jackson and Guillermo Varela has curbed his enthusiasm, despite a slew of injuries to United's full-backs.

Right-back Darmian suffered a head injury in last month's defeat to Southampton, while left-back Marcos Rojo has not played since November, due to a dislocated shoulder.

The Argentine returned to his homeland last week to continue his rehabilitation, having suffered the same injury to the same shoulder last season.
