As Manchester United’s longest-serving player and one of only four Englishmen to play in each of the last two World Cups, Phil Jones has achieved plenty in his career beyond picking up an unfortunate catalogue of injuries.
And despite going more than a year without playing, there is still a future for the defender at Old Trafford.
Jones is on the mend after his latest problem that required knee surgery and, after being included in the Europa League squad last week, he will be recalled to United’s Premier League squad for the second half of the season.
