Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has revealed that Zlatan Ibrahimovic will start Thursday's Europa League Group A match with Zorya Luhansk.
Earlier this week, it was claimed that the 34-year-old had been given permission to miss the match ahead of this weekend's Premier League clash with Stoke City.
However, Mourinho, speaking at his pre-match press conference, said that "Zlatan starts" when asked on whether the Swede would be involved in the club's second Europa League match of the season.
Luke Shaw has been ruled out of the match through illness, but Mourinho confirmed that French forward Anthony Martial had recovered from the calf problem that forced him to miss Saturday's clash with Leicester City.
Man United suffered a 1-0 defeat to Feyenoord in their Group A opener earlier this month.
