Amad is responding well to being back in individual training, with the winger set to join first-team training shortly.
The story of Manchester United’s season so far has been injuries. The Old Trafford side have been dealing without several first-teamers at a time since pre-season. It makes Erik ten Hag’s job infinitely harder.
Slowly but surely, players are returning. These guys do need time to get fully up to speed before they’re thrust into meaningful minutes, but it is nice to hear that some guys are on the mend again.
The latest positive update comes from Insider United/X/Twitter. These guys are a credible source, having previously been forced into deactivating their account due to accurate team news leaks.
They state that Amad, who returned to training recently, has ‘responded well’ to those individual sessions. He is now expected to join the first-team squad sessions within the next ‘week or so’.

Amad responded well, and had no issue being back on grass, expected to be involved in first team squad training within the next week or so.

Amad picked up his problem during pre-season, after putting in one or two decent displays in the friendly matches before going down with injury. We have not seen him since.
It’s gutting for the player because at this time, there was a real opening in the right-wing position. Antony had some legal issues. Jadon Sancho remains frozen out and Mason Greenwood is a thing of the past.
Facundo Pellistri has taken advantage of that situation in fits and spurts but I bet Amad, who has way more experience, is chomping at the bit to prove his worth, too.
