The Frenchman had just signed for United for a record breaking £52million, after previously planning to leave Lille and join Real Madrid.
However, the 18-year-old phenom suffered a metarsal fracture in his first pre-season game, requiring surgery in August.

Leny Yoro returned to training on Wednesday after being out since July 2024.
He aims to return to the pitch for United’s newly instated manager Ruben Amorim.
The record-breaking teenage centre back has credited the United staff throughout his rehabilitation.
Yoro claimed they bolstered his confidence and that he’s immensely grateful for the trust they gave him.
United legend Rio Ferdinand took it upon himself to spare some words for the young defender.

“He just explained to me how big United is,” The Frenchman explained.
“He explained what to do on the pitch and what can be good for me – just some advice, you know?
“They are a big part of the history of the club so it’s always good to speak with guys like this, to learn more about the club and how to play on the pitch.”
The legendary centreback, Rio Ferdinand, had played a crucial role in originally convincing Yoro to sign for Manchester United and now has played a similarly important role towards his recovery.
Yoro will aim to recover for Amorim’s first game as head coach against Ipswich Town on November 24.
He has returned to training, but it is still unknown when he will reach full match fitness.
