Manchester United will assess Alex Telles upon his return to England after reports in Brazil suggested the new signing has tested positive for coronavirus for a second time.

The 27-year-old was sidelined in October after contracting the virus shortly after his arrival from Porto, and missed four games as a result.

Telles' only appearance for the club came in the 2-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain last month in the Champions League.
