Park upbeat after ankle op

Ji-sung Park believes he will return a stronger player following a successful operation on his injured ankle.

The Korean international damaged ligaments in training just two days before United's opening Champions League victory over Celtic and now faces just under three months on the sidelines.

However, Park remains upbeat and is focused on getting himself fit as quickly as possible.

"It is frustrating to be sidelined for such a long time, but I'm that the operation was a success," explained the 25-year-old.

"I'm clearly disappointed but I feel confident I will return stronger than ever after this injury."

If his rehabilitation progresses as planned, Park could be back for United's pre-Christmas trip to Aston Villa.
