Manchester United have brought in Burnley goalkeeping coach Craig Mawson to work with David de Gea.

The 40-year-old has been drafted in to replace Emilio Alvarez, who left earlier this year, and link up with United's senior keeper coach Richard Hartis.

De Gea has been under scrutiny recently after a couple of costly mistakes and has strong competition from Sergio Romero and Lee Grant while Dean Henderson has been impressing on loan at Sheffield United.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has concerns over Paul Pogba's fitness with the midfielder complaining of a reaction to his recent foot injury.

Pogba missed United's win over Burnley and was then pictured in France coaching at a charity football game. He was back at Carrington on Monday but has yet to confirm whether he is up to facing Arsenal on Wednesday.

Pogba remains intent on leaving United with Juventus interested in a deal but the 26-year-old has been told he will not be sold in January.
