Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea is back in contention to face Tottenham this evening amid the uncertainty of a false positive Covid test result.
Dean Henderson was one of a handful of players to report at The Lowry hotel on Friday night as he was in line to replace the seemingly unavailable De Gea.
However, Henderson left The Lowry on Sunday morning and was recalled to United's Carrington training complex as sources believe De Gea produced a false positive.

Henderson, who celebrates his 25th birthday today, and Aaron Wan-Bissaka checked in at The Lowry but the majority of the United squad did not as there were believed to be other suspected positive Covid tests.
Security were present at The Lowry in anticipation of United's arrival but only Henderson, Wan-Bissaka and some coaching staff members arrived. Wan-Bissaka did not leave with Henderson on Saturday morning.
The United squad is expected to have their pre-match meal and meeting at their training ground.
There had been suggestions Atletico Madrid's La Liga win over Cadiz on Friday night played a factor in United's unexpected alteration to United's preparations. Atletico won 2-1 ahead of their Champions League round-of-16 second leg at United on Tuesday.
Henderson has not played in the Premier League since the final day of last season at Wolves and has made three appearances this season against West Ham in the League Cup, Young Boys in the Champions League group stage and Middlesbrough in the FA Cup.
De Gea has started in all 28 of United's league matches so far this season. He has only missed four league fixtures through injury or illness in 10-and-a-half years at United.
