Luke Shaw was back in training for Manchester United on Saturday, with the left-back in line to play a part against Fulham on the final matchday of the 2022-23 Premier League campaign.
The England international had emerged as a huge doubt for the game with Marco Silva's side when he was replaced at the interval of Thursday's clash with Chelsea due to a back issue.
However, the left-back was pictured alongside his teammate during Saturday's training session, with his withdrawal against Chelsea seemingly only a precaution.
The 27-year-old has recovered from a poor start to the season to star for Man United in recent months, and he has featured on 46 occasions in all competitions this term, scoring once and providing six assists.
Shaw's presence in training does not guarantee his involvement against Fulham, though, with Tyrell Malacia potentially getting the nod at left-back.

Man United booked their spot in next season's Champions League when they recorded a 4-1 win over Chelsea, with the result moving the Red Devils into third position in the Premier League table.
Erik ten Hag's side now need to beat Fulham on Sunday to be certain of finishing third, as a point might not be enough due to Newcastle United's superior goal difference.
While Shaw is in line to feature in the FA Cup final against Manchester City next weekend, Antony remains a huge doubt due to the injury that he suffered in the first half of the clash with Chelsea.
Man United are yet to provide an update on the Brazil international's apparent ankle issue, but there are fears that he could be out for the next couple of months, potentially also ruling him out of his side's preparations for the 2023-24 campaign.

Lisandro Martinez remains absent for the 20-time English champions, but Ten Hag has said that the Argentina international is on the verge of returning to Carrington.
As a result, the central defender is well on course to be available for the start of pre-season, with the Red Devils beginning their preparations for the 2023-24 campaign against Leeds United on July 12.
Donny van de Beek has also made excellent progress in his recovery from a knee operation, but the Dutchman is still out, while Marcel Sabitzer saw his campaign end due to a recent knee injury.
Sabitzer, as it stands, has played his last game for the Red Devils, with the Austria international's loan spell at Old Trafford due to officially end next month.
