Mourinho calls Manchester United starlet back from the cold

Jose Mourinho has revealed forgotten star Luke Shaw will feature against Bournemouth on Saturday in a bid to prove his worth to the Manchester United manager.

Shaw, 21, has been cast aside under Mourinho this season after struggling to impress the new United manager and was even confirmed as fourth in the pecking order at left-back for the EFL Cup final last weekend.

The £30m-signing’s future at United is still up in the air and the England international cannot afford to waste many more chances to impress Mourinho with just three months of the season remaining.

“Luke Shaw, I have good news for you,” The Daily Mail quote Mourinho as saying ahead of their clash with Bournemouth on Saturday. “He is selected for tomorrow so you won’t need to have the guys at The Lowry to take pictures of who is selected and make the list.”

It will only be the second time Shaw makes an appearance for United since the start of December and the first time he has featured in the Premier League since October (vs Burnley).
