Manchester United stars arrive at Lowry Hotel ahead of Champions League clash with Sevilla just hours after World War II bomb scare

Jose Mourinho and his Manchester United stars have checked into the Lowry Hotel ahead of their Champions League clash with Sevilla just hours after a bomb scare in the city centre.

The Lowry was cordoned off earlier on Monday and a bomb disposal team was deployed following reports of a suspected World War II explosive being found on a building site.

However the scene was reopened after analysis found it was not a bomb and not dangerous.
