Chris Kavanagh has been deemed fit to return to the Premier League after being handed his first assignment of the season – as VAR of Manchester United against Brighton this Saturday.
Kavanagh has been sidelined this season with the 38-year-old English official believed to have only recently passed his fitness test at the end of August.
He was eased back into refereeing by being handed MK Dons' 1-1 draw with Notts County in League Two at the weekend. Yet now he will be the eyes and ears from Stockley Park for United's big clash with Brighton.
