Luke Shaw and Andre Onana have been declared fit for Manchester United\u2019s trip to Everton on Sunday, but Rasmus Hojlund faces a late fitness test ahead of the Goodison Park clash.<\/p>\n
Shaw is set to return for the first time in three months after recovering from a serious thigh muscle tear.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The England defender played in the first two games of the season but has not been seen since.<\/p>\n
Onana flew home early from international duty with Cameroon after suffering a groin strain in the World Cup qualifier against Mauritius, but has come through training without any reaction.<\/p>\n
Hojlund tweaked his right hamstring in the win over Luton a fortnight ago and withdrew from Denmark\u2019s games against Slovenia and Northern Ireland during the international break.\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Erik ten Hag has delivered a positive injury update on the fitness of Luke Shaw, who will be available for United’s trip to Goodison Park on Sunday<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Andre Onana will also be available for selection, despite having walked off the pitch in some discomfort following Cameroon’s\u00a0World Cup qualifier against Mauritius<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Ten Hag also lumped praise on Shaw, claiming that he was delighted to see the left-back return\u00a0<\/p>\n

United boss Erik ten Hag confirmed that his \u00a372million signing is back in training but faces a race against time to be fit for the Everton game.<\/p>\n
\u2018Rasmus is a close finish,\u2019 said Ten Hag. \u2018He’s training, he finished outside. He\u2019s making very good steps and we have to wait until tomorrow and we will make a final decision.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘Luke Shaw will be available for Sunday, he will be in the squad. Andre is okay, he stepped in training today, he’s good.\u2019<\/p>\n
Ten Hag admitted that Shaw\u2019s return will be a major boost after United were forced to use a number of different players at left-back in his absence this season.<\/p>\n
\u2018You can mention many things,\u2019 he added. \u2018You can mention his physicality, his technical ability, his leadership, it’s clear.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘A long time in the season we didn’t have a left-back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘We are very happy he’s back, it’s a good sign. He will help us be more stable, I am sure of that.\u2019<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Despite the positive news, Rasmus Hojlund is still a doubt, with the Dutch manager stating the Dane will undergo a late fitness test ahead of the match<\/p>\n
