The Portuguese midfielder missed Saturday’s 3-2 victory over Tottenham in the Premier League and was a doubt to play against Atletico.

But Fernandes has now returned a negative test and reported to training at Carrington on Monday.

It remains to be seen if Fernandes will come straight back into the starting XI.

United performed excellently without him against Spurs as Cristiano Ronaldo netted a superb hat-trick.
