Manchester United has been improving at an important point in the season, and uncertainty is starting to give way to confidence.

Outstanding performances have boosted confidence at Old Trafford, particularly as the race for Champions League qualifying intensifies.

During Manchester United’s thrilling 3-2 victory over Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, Patrick Dorgu suffered a hamstring injury.

As a result, Michael Carrick’s side have been without one of their best players for the following few weeks.

The Denmark international finished a wonderful all-around performance in North London with a spectacular long-range goal that proved pivotal that evening.

Hamstring issues have been known to frustrate players with their tendency to linger if not managed carefully, and there was understandable concern among the fanbase about how long the Denmark international might be out.

CentreDevils exclusively revealed that Patrick Dorgu was making good progress on his recovery from injury and has been doing strength and conditioning work this week at Carrington.

Now, we can reveal a positive update on his situation.

CentreDevils understands that Patrick Dorgu has made a positive step in his recovery and has started doing light-intensity grass training for the first time.

The 21-year-old has been working tirelessly in recent weeks during strength and conditioning work at the gym and has now finally started doing outdoor work.

Dorgu is aiming for a return before the end of the season.

Coaches at Carrington are delighted with his progress and his hard work during his recovery process so far.

For supporters, seeing Dorgu embrace the hard work of recovery is a welcome sign that United’s investment in the young Danish international could soon pay off again on the pitch.

With the business end of the season approaching, his return to full training would give Michael Carrick another attacking option and fresh impetus as the club chases a spot in next season’s Champions League.
