Manchester United to poach physio from Celtic?

Manchester United want to bring in Celtic's head of physiotherapy Tim Williamson as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer continues to tweak his backroom team, according to a report.

Manchester United are reportedly hoping to bring in Celtic's head of physiotherapy Tim Williamson as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer continues to tweak his backroom team.

Williamson also works with the Scotland national team, and United want to recruit him after being affected by a number of soft tissue, non-contact injuries in the early part of the season.

While some players have already recovered and made a return to first team action, Anthony Martial, Paul Pogba, Marcus Rashford, Diego Dalot, Luke Shaw, Angel Gomes and Phil Jones have all suffered with this type of injury at some point during this campaign.

According to the Daily Mail, United have advertised for a new head physio and they have conducted some interviews, although Williamson is believed to be their top candidate.

The Scot is currently in his second spell with Celtic having previously worked for Birmingham City and with the academy sides at Tottenham Hotspur and Leeds United.
