A key Manchester United midfielder has returned to training before their crucial Europa League clash.
Manchester United head into their Europa League knockout clash against Real Sociedad on the back of a frustrating run, having been eliminated from the FA Cup by Fulham in a penalty shootout at the weekend.
That defeat added to their recent struggles, with Ruben Amorim’s side dealing with inconsistent performances and a growing injury list.
Toby Collyer is involved in first-team training this morning, according to journalist Steven Railston.

The 20-year-old midfielder, who has been on the fringes of the senior squad, is expected to take part in today’s session as United finalize their plans for the first leg in Spain.
With several key players sidelined, Toby Collyer’s presence in training could be an indication that he is being considered as a potential option for the upcoming fixtures.
Despite his involvement, Toby Collyer remains on the club’s B-list for the Europa League, meaning he is only eligible under UEFA’s regulations if he meets the criteria of being with the club for an extended period.
While he won’t be part of the main A-list squad submitted for the tournament, his participation in training suggests he could be in contention for future opportunities should United face further squad limitations.
United head into the tie against Real Sociedad with a depleted squad, missing several senior players due to injuries and eligibility constraints.
With Ruben Amorim’s side needing to bounce back from their FA Cup exit to Fulham, the manager may look towards youth to bolster his options for the European campaign.
