The likes of Anthony Martial, Michael Carrick, Marcos Rojo and Mourinho himself were among the United men spotted prior to the session.

Meanwhile, it is unclear yet whether Paul Pogba, who was nowhere to be seen on arrival, will be included in United’s squad to take on Sevilla away on Wednesday after missing the 2-0 FA Cup victory over Huddersfield with illness.

His team-mates did not know Pogba was ill until they turned up at Carrington on Saturday morning, and then travelled to a hotel outside Huddersfield for a pre-match meal without him.

Pogba’s absence from the FA Cup clash followed speculation over his future at Old Trafford after United’s record £89million signing was substituted in two of the previous three games and dropped to the bench for the other.

However, encouragingly for United, the France international did report for an 11am session just 24 hours after phoning in sick before United’s victory at the John Smith’s Stadium.  

Mourinho will hope to have Pogba back as they prepare to take on a Sevilla side that held Liverpool twice in the Champions League group stage, before they play Premier League rivals Chelsea on Sunday.
