The 20-year-old made a £72 million deal from Atalanta to Manchester United earlier this month, but during his testing, a slight back issue was found that would need constant monitoring.
To aid in his recovery from a “strеss reaction hotspot” he sustained during preseason with his previous squad, Hojlund was placed on a customized training program.
Two weeks ago, United expected that Henning Hojlund’s injury would keep him out for “a few weeks,” but it now appears like they may finally be able to use him.
According to The Sun, the young player will train with the first team squad during the week leading up to the match against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
Although United is probably going to go cautiously at first, he has shown no negative effects from the situation and is prepared to be absorbed into the group.
If he is fit enough to sit on the bench at Old Trafford, he might make his club debut.
In a friendly game against Burnley on Wednesday that was played behind closed doors, Hojlund was not present, but Anthony Martial was.

United needs more offensive firepower badly after its two disappointing starts to the season against Wolves and Tottenham.
In their season opener, Ten Hag’s team defeated Wolves, but they required a goal from United’s lone scorer so far this year, center defense Raphael Varane, to pull off the surprise.
The offensive was particularly wasteful during the weekend match against Spurs. In the first half, Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford both wasted clear-cut chances, and Antony hit the post in the second.
As Ten Hag stated earlier this month, “We don’t rush,” therefore Hojlund won’t play again until he has fully recovered. Before we can completely incorporate him into our practice and ultimately our games, he must be at the proper level.
Nothing is rushed here. Here, continuous success rather than quick achievement should be the aim. We think we’ve discovered the right striker, but it will take some time for him to mature. He is no longer available, therefore incorporating fresh information will take longer.
Since Rashy’s excellent striker abilities were demonstrated last Saturday, I feel rather composed and collected in this situation. Anthony Martial is also available to play. Jadon Sancho also did well during the preseason. The team can manage it, as I have stated. Their behavior has a purpose.
