Man United fans have been reacting to the news that Luke Shaw is back in full training after recovering from a calf injury.
Shaw has spent most of this season out injured, making just two Premier League appearances for the Red Devils. It is the latest of several seasons with Shaw missing time for United which is damaging considering his weekly wage of around £150,000.
Sky Sports News reported on X that Shaw is back in training alongside Harry Maguire and Leny Yoro, and that Kobbie Mainoo is closer to a return, but is in individual training rather than with the rest of the team.
After the news was announced, Man United fans took to X to react to Shaw’s impending return for Ruben Amorim’s side.
Good addition to the team!

£58m + Luke Shaw has earned in wages whilst being injured at Manchester United

Integrating Shaw, Maguire, and Yoro could strengthen Man United’s defensive teamwork; Mainoo focused on recovery.

When will Luke Shaw play for United next?
The English defender has been out for a long period of time, and so there is no chance that Amorim will rush him back into the first team squad.
United’s next game comes against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday which will likely be too soon for Shaw even for making an appearance from the bench.
His earliest possible return could come in the game after that on Sunday 6 April when the Red Devils face a Manchester derby against City at Old Trafford which would be a huge boost for United.
However, the most likely return date as things stand for Shaw would be Man United’s Europa League quarter final against Lyon, the first leg of which comes on Thursday 10 April.
