Shaw to make Manchester United return in Champions League opener

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has confirmed Luke Shaw will return from his concussion lay-off in the Champions League clash with Young Boys on Wednesday.

Shaw, who sustained a head knock while on England duty last weekend, sat out the 2-1 win at Watford despite being cleared to feature by United's medical staff.

Ashley Young deputised at left-back but will make way in midweek.

"Luke Shaw plays Wednesday. We can't do it with one left-back and Ashley Young is not just a left-back, he's also a right-back," Mourinho told reporters.

"They both are doing well, and they both are different players and I think they both understand that one is a young player and the other one is the experienced one.
