    Ji-sung Park will undergo tests in Korea next week after complaining of discomfort in his knee while on international duty.

    The 27-year-old winger has played two 90-minute World Cup qualifiers for South Korea since United's season ended, scoring in a 2-2 draw against Jordan on May 31.

    But the knee injury which required surgery and sidelined him for nine months last year has since flared up, ruling him out of Saturday's qualifier in Turkmenistan.

    However, both Park and Korea's medical staff are hopeful the setback is not serious and that he will return for the game against North Korea next Sunday.

    I don't feel any pain and walking is fine, but there is some water in my knee, Park said. This is the first time I have felt it since the operation.

    South Korea national team doctor Dong-eun Shin added: He is not feeling pain, but he is experiencing discomfort, so we are putting his knee under light treatment.

    United are awaiting further news from Korea's medical staff, who will assess Park further when he returns to Korea from Turkmenistan next week.

    Park made his United comeback at Christmas and played an important role in the Reds' Double triumph, declaring that he felt fitter than ever.

    I never liked him really. He doesn't really have a future at Man. United at all. He should join a club like Villa, Blackburn, Everton, etc.

    I wasn't too keen on him until the end of this season. He played really well and his greatest asset is his work rate, which is why he was preferred to Giggs for many Champions League games. He doesn't stop running and fights for the ball at every opportunity. I think he does have a role at United, but it will never be as a star player, but he could be an unsung hero for years to come, since his work rate could win many tight games for them.
