Scott McTominay has provided an update on his condition after being substituted in Man United’s draw with Burnley.

United found themselves in a protracted stalemate with Vincent Kompany’s struggling side at Old Trafford, with the game goalless at the hour mark.

McTominay has made a habit of having a significant impact off the bench this season and was brought on to replace Kobbie Mainoo as the hosts looked to break the deadlock.

However, the 27-year-old assued supporters that the issue was not as serious as first feared and that he hopes to return soon

McTominay is also expected to be included in Steve Clarke’s Scotland squad for the upcoming European Championships this summer.

Deployed in a more advanced role that he has become accustomed to at United, McTominay was instrumental in helping Scotland qualify for the finals in Germany, netting seven from seven starts as they finished second in Group A.
