“All being well, I will get the green (light) to join in with contact training again.”
Having played with a shoulder issue for much of last season, Rashford decided after being part of England’s Euro 2020 campaign that he would have surgery.
The operation took place on 6 August, with Rashford saying four days later that “everything went well”.
He has missed eight matches in all competitions so far this term for United, who host Villarreal in the Champions League on Wednesday then Everton in the Premier League three days later.
Rashford also missed England World Cup qualifiers against Hungary, Andorra and Poland earlier this month.
Three Lions boss Gareth Southgate is set to name his squad on Thursday for matches against Andorra and Hungary on 9 and 12 October.
United then return to action by playing Leicester away on October 16.
