Park Ji-sung is due to return to training with
Manchester United next week after recovering from a knee
injury.
The South Korea midfielder had hoped to represent his country in
the Olympics but United were less keen on the idea after he injured
himself whilst on international duty in the close season.
Sir Alex Ferguson surprisingly left Park out of the Champions
League final despite his exertions in the semi-finals with
Barcelona but the popular ex-PSV Eindhoven wide man is
likely to have an important role to play in the upcoming
season.
"I need probably one more week, I'm nearly there,"
Park revealed to MUTV when asked about his return to
training.
"I'm looking forward to the season because last season I missed
six months.
"I want to play more than last season and show my ability on the
pitch. Then maybe I will get more chances."
Meanwhile, Dimitar Berbatov trained with Tottenham on Wednesday
amid intense speculation in the press that he will join United
before the weekend.
