Red Devils shot-stopper comes back to squad

Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar has returned to training following his wife's brain haemorrhage in December. The Holland international took part in United's practice session and gym workout on Monday, returning for the first time since the incident. Van der Sar had been on compassionate leave since Annemarie van Kesteren was admitted to hospital in Amsterdam on December 23, although she is thought to have escaped permanent damage. The Dutchman's last game for the Red Devils was against Everton back in November, having missed a number of games with a knee injury. United's next game is a home clash against Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday.
