Paul Pogba is fit and in contention to feature for Manchester United against Leicester City this weekend, according to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The temporary Red Devils boss was asked to provide a fitness update on the Frenchman who limped away from Old Trafford following United's draw with Burnley on Tuesday.

Pogba was assessed by Man United medics and is ready to play. Meanwhile Anthony Martial is also in contention.

"I don't think there's anything with Paul," said Solskjaer. "Anthony has done some rehab work, so he'll try a session today. I would imagine he would be available to be involved. He seemed happy yesterday."

Martial put pen to paper on a new contract at Manchester United until 2024 on Deadline Day.

"I am loving my time at this club. From the day I joined I have been made to feel part of the United family," said Martial.

"I have been incredibly humbled and overwhelmed by the warmth and love of our fans, who continue to amaze me with their support.

"I would like to thank Ole and his coaching staff for their belief in me and for helping me to take my game to the next level.

"This club is all about winning trophies and I am sure the next piece of silverware is not that far away."
