Manchester United summer signing Leny Yoro could reportedly make his return from injury immediately after the November international break.
United fended off stiff competition from the likes of Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool to land the highly-rated Yoro from Lille.
It’s believed that the Red Devils and Lille reached an agreement for the teenage defender at around the £52m mark.
However, his start to life at United was interrupted after he picked up a metatarsal injury during a pre-season clash against Arsenal.
The issue required an operation and since then, he has been in rehabilitation with an aim to return to action as soon as possible.
Last month, United confirmed that Yoro had returned to individual training and was doing some work on the grass.
A report covered by The Peoples Person relayed that the Frenchman and teammate Tyrell Malacia are unlikely to be fully fit before the November international break but now, The Evening Standard have suggested otherwise.
According to the newspaper, incoming United boss Amorim may have Yoro available for selection in his debut match against Kieran McKenna’s Ipswich Town on November 24.
United officially confirmed Amorim’s appointment on Friday, including the fact that he will take over the reins of the team on November 11, after Sporting Lisbon’s clashes against Manchester City and Braga.
If this does indeed happen, Yoro’s availability will be a much-welcome boost for Amorim and United as they seek to climb up a few spots in the Premier League table.
The Reds are currently in 13th place after Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea at Old Trafford.
Meanwhile, United return to Europa League action on Thursday when they take on Greek side PAOK FC.
