Kobbie Mainoo don return to Manchester United training after injury absence, and di midfielder dey in contention for Saturday trip to Chelsea. Di return come after Manchester United report say Mainoo don reach 100 appearances for di club.
Mainoo play through Manchester United 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur on 10 October, but he pick injury during di match. Dat injury rule am out of di Champions League defeat at Atletico Madrid three days later. Head coach Michael Carrick no sure whether di midfielder go recover for Leeds United match, and Mainoo later miss am. Carrick then estimate on 20 October say di academy graduate fit need another 10 days.
Mainoo still no available for di matches against Como and Bournemouth. One post on X by Sam C talk say di midfielder take part in Wednesday morning session at Carrington after missing Manchester United last four matches through injury.

Di timing fit help Carrick, wey go remain in charge against Chelsea despite Manchester United dey 16th for Premier League. His side don win only two times in 12 matches across all competitions dis season. Carrick begin di campaign with Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos as central pairing before Mainoo replace Santos. Carlos Baleba also recently return to full fitness after ankle injury, wey give di coach more room to adjust midfield wey don struggle to provide enough creativity and drive.
