Juan Mata is fit and has been activated for Swansea clash on Sunday Afternoon (PHOTOS)

Jose Mourinho has drafted in 20-year-old midfielder Scott McTominay as he looks to patch up his injury-ravaged squad.

McTominay will be joined by fit-again Juan Mata as Manchester United look to extend their 24-game unbeaten run against Swansea City on Sunday.

McTominay has been hindered in his fledgling career by a phenomenal growth spurt which saw him grow from 5ft 6ins to 6ft 4ins in just over 18 months.

United coaching staff limited his game time as they believed he wasn't physically ready but he has progressed this season and has suitably impressed Mourinho in training.

The Lancaster-born youngster has also filled in as a striker this season and is likely to cover for the suspended Marouane Fellaini.
Mata has recovered from his groin operation and gives Mourinho an added attacking option.
However, concerns remain in defence after Timothy Fosuh Mensah damaged a shoulder against Manchester City in midweek to leave Axel Tuanzebe as the only fit and recognised cover for Eric Bailly and Daley Blind.

Both McTominay and Mata arrived at the Lowry Hotel in Salford on Saturday night as the United squad stayed over ahead of their trip to Swansea.
