Michael Carrick to return for Hull City game?

Manchester United have reportedly been boosted by the news that Michael Carrick could be in line for a Boxing Day return.

The midfielder has been out of action since suffering an Achilles injury in the 1-0 win against Arsenal on November 10.

According to the Daily Mail, Carrick could return in time for the game against Hull City.

Despite the good news for manager David Moyes, it is thought that Carrick will still be absent for the visit of West Ham United this Saturday.
