Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez both reportedly turn out for Manchester United in a behind-closed-doors friendly against a Blackburn Rovers XI.

Paul Pogba and Alexis Sanchez both reportedly turned out for Manchester United in a behind-closed-doors friendly against a Blackburn Rovers XI on Sunday afternoon.

Pogba missed United's International Champions Cup clash against AC Milan on Saturday with a back problem, while Sanchez has not yet turned out for the Red Devils this summer following his involvement in the Copa America.

According to the Daily Mail, though, Pogba and Sanchez represented United in the clash at Carrington, where Jesse Lingard, Mason Greenwood and Tahith Chong were on the scoresheet.

The report claims that Harry Maguire was also in attendance for the match as the England international nears a move to the 20-time English champions.

United have a 100% win record from their friendlies this summer, beating Perth Glory, Leeds United, Inter Milan, Tottenham Hotspur and Milan during a successful pre-season on the field.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side will open their 2019-20 Premier League campaign with a home game against Chelsea next weekend.
