Mason Mount sends message to fans after returning to training

After returning to Manchester United training on Monday, Mason Mount took to social media to let his fans know that he is back.

The 25-year-old was pictured with the first-team group at Carrington a day after the 7-0 win over Barsnley in the Carabao Cup third round.

Mount has missed the last three matches with a hamstring injury after being substituted at half-time in the 2-1 defeat to Brighton.

“Back with the mad man,” Mount captioned an Instagram post showing him and Rasmus Hojlund during Wednesday’s training session.

Hojlund replied in the comments section: “Enjoying being out there with u masi.”

Sky Sports ran a report on Wednesday night stating that the duo had returned to training.

Hojlund shared the same photo along with the caption: “I guess being a football player the caption should be ‘happy to be on the pitch again’, but I think the photo says it all.”

It will be a boost to have both players back available because it gives Ten Hag more options in attack. Hojlund will be determined to get amongst the goals and Mount needs to find a role in the team. They both need to fight their way into the starting line-up.
