Vidic targets United return

Manchester United defender Nemanja Vidic has revealed he is set to make a return for the club on the first day of the season.

The 30-year-old was forced to watch from the sidelines as United went through a rare season without winning any silverware, with rivals Manchester City claiming the Premier League title. Vidic suffered a nasty knee ligament injury back in December after falling awkwardly during a Champions League encounter against Basel. However the Serbian international is well on the road to recovery and is looking forward to the start of the next campaign, as the club hope to claim back the domestic crown and you can back them using your free bet. He told The Sun: "Hopefully, I'll be fit for the big kick-off. "I can now run and do some things on the pitch which is better for me psychologically because for the last four months it's been every day in the gym, which is hard. "But the worst part is behind me. I can look forward to the second half of the rehabilitation and work more on my fitness."
