Manchester United have been handed a double injury boost ahead of Saturday's Premier League clash against Sheffield United, with Sofyan Amrabat and Sergio Reguilon both training on Thursday.
Amrabat's availability for this weekend's contest was thrown into doubt when he was unable to feature for Morocco during the international break due to injury.
The on-loan Fiorentina midfielder was a notable absentee against Liberia on Tuesday evening, with Al Ayam claiming that a small issue had forced him to miss the match.
Amrabat was able to train with Man United on Thursday, though, suggesting that he will be available for the contest with the Blades on Saturday night.
Reguilon was also present, with the Spaniard appearing to have overcome a hamstring problem.

The on-loan Tottenham Hotspur defender has been absent from the team's last four matches, but he was thought to be close to featuring against Brentford before the international break.
Reguilon is now expected to take a timely return to the side on Saturday, with the Spaniard set to start at left-back due to the ongoing absences of Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia.
Shaw is out until at least next month due to a muscular problem, while it is understood that Malacia underwent a knee operation over the summer, which will keep him out until the latter stages of the year.
Raphael Varane also trained on Thursday, with the Frenchman recovering from the minor problem which forced him to miss the Brentford clash before the international break.

Man United will be missing Casemiro this weekend, though, as the midfielder has remained in Brazil to address a minor problem which he suffered on international duty.
The 31-year-old has been ruled out of the contest with Sheffield United and will also not feature against Copenhagen in the Champions League next week due to suspension.
As a result, he could make his return to the side in the Manchester derby at home to Manchester City on October 29, which comes ahead of a EFL Cup clash with Newcastle United.
Lisandro Martinez, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Kobbie Mainoo and Amad Diallo are also still injured, while Jadon Sancho remains absent due to his falling-out with head coach Erik ten Hag.
Scott McTominay's stoppage-time brace against Brentford before the international break secured a huge three points for the Red Devils, and Casemiro's absence could open the door for the Scot to start this weekend.
