Zirkzee, 23, was expected to miss the remainder of the season after suffering a hamstring injury against Newcastle on April 13.
But the Dutchman has surprisingly returned to training, bolstering boss Ruben Amorim's forward options.
Amorim, 40, had previously ruled Zirkzee out for the season.
The Portuguese said of the forward: "He’s not going to play more this season. Let’s prepare him for the next one.

"It’s tough, especially in this moment. I think he’s improving in all aspects of the game, so it’s hard for any player to stop."
Yoro, meanwhile, suffered an injury in United's 2-0 home defeat to West Ham on May 11.
The Frenchman, 19, could now be in contention to feature having been deemed fit enough to return to full training.
