Gill: No Saha Fitness Worries

  • 14 January 2008

Manchester United insist striker Louis Saha is not out for the rest of the season - and will be back from injury sooner rather than later.

There has been speculation the Frenchman is out for the remainder of the season with knee ligament damage.

However, chief executive David Gill has dismissed that suggestion.

"He only has a slight knock, " Gill told Radio Five Live's Sportsweek programme. "He is not going to be out for the rest of the season - I know that for a fact."

Saha has been troubled by a series of injuries since his £12.8million move to Old Trafford from Fulham in 2004.

He had knee surgery in the summer and has scored four goals so far this season.
