Phil Jones played for Manchester United for the first time in 17 months in a behind-closed doors friendly against Burnley at Old Trafford.
Jones, who made a 30-minute comeback off the bench in United’s 3-1 win, has been out of action since featuring in a FA Cup tie against Tranmere in January 2020.
The 29-year-old defender had knee surgery the following June and has taken more than a year to return to action for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side.
Phil Jones will be retained by Manchester United this summer and used as fifth choice
Jones has two years left on his £130,000-a-week contract at Old Trafford.
