As Man United gear up for their upcoming fixture in the UEFA Europa League, it has been confirmed that a player has returned to training for the club.

Man United midfielder Mason Mount has made a notable step forward in his recovery by returning to full training this week. Mount, who has been out of action since late September following a 3-0 loss to Tottenham, had missed several crucial matches across all competitions due to his injury. Looking refreshed and positive, the sight of him back on the training pitch has provided a welcome boost for both fans and the team.

The club has confirmed that Mount will not be rushed back into competitive action to avoid re-injury risk. While he participated fully with the group on Monday, United’s medical team is taking a cautious approach, allowing the 25-year-old time to regain his match fitness gradually.

After an intense rehabilitation process, Mount is determined to be available for selection soon giving a huge player boost to Man United going into the club’s upcoming fixtures against PAOK in the Europa League on Thursday and Leicester City in the Premier League on Sunday.

When will Amorim start coaching Man United?

With interim coach Ruud van Nistelrooy overseeing these two matches, Mount’s return comes at a strategic time as the team prepares for a new chapter under incoming head coach Ruben Amorim.

The Portuguese manager is expected to make his managerial debut for United in an away fixture against Ipswich Town on November 24, after the international break. Mount is reportedly eager to impress Amorim and reclaim his role in United’s midfield, where his pressing ability and presence have been missed.

In addition to Mount, full-back Tyrell Malacia, another recent absentee, also joined the training session, signalling progress in his own recovery. The Dutch defender appeared to be in good spirits as he worked toward a full return to fitness.

With these players inching closer to match readiness, Manchester United hopes to strengthen their squad for the demanding stretch of fixtures ahead. Fans are eagerly anticipating Mount’s return to the pitch, confident that his commitment and work ethic during the recovery process will translate into impactful performances upon his comeback.
