Cristiano Ronaldo did not train with his Manchester United team-mates on Thursday morning due his ongoing hip flexor injury.
The Portuguese icon was also absent from the group on Wednesday and missed his team's humiliating 4-1 defeat to rivals Manchester City at the Etihad last weekend.
Ronaldo, 37, has been spotted at United's Carrington training ground this week, as he continues his recovery ahead of a return to first-team action.
