Rojo's progress will come as a relief to Van Gaal who has struggled with the fitness of his defenders all season, with Antonio Valencia deployed at right wing-back during the recent 2-1 win over Arsenal - a game which also saw left-back Luke Shaw limp off.
Youngsters Tyler Blackett and Patrick McNair have been drafted into the first team, while Michael Carrick has also been deployed as cover following his own return from injury.
Rojo joined United from Sporting in a deal worth €20 million in August, with winger Nani moving to the Portuguese club on a season-long loan in return.
