Marcos Rojo has started all of Man Utd's last six games
Rojo fell out of favour with Van Gaal after the defender was prevented from joining up with United on their pre-season tour following passport issues.
The Argentina international looked set to leave the club only a year after he arrived from Sporting Lisbon.
The 25-year-old however chose to stay at Old Trafford, but he only appeared in two of United’s first 13 games of the season.

But he has started all six since then, earning praise from Van Gaal for his efforts at left-back.
Asked if he had a good relationship with Van Gaal, Rojo told ESPN: "It is normal, as with any other coach.
"I don't ask him why he includes me in a game when I play, so I don't have any right in asking him why I don't play when he decides that I don't have to do it. It's as simple as that.
"Van Gaal does the same as any coach in the world. He decides who plays according to what he sees during the week, he chooses the players that he sees in the best condition and we have to accept all the decisions that the coach takes".
"He is a very professional coach, he wants to get out the very best from each one - that doesn't mean that he is rough.
"He wants his work to have success and we have to understand what he expects from each one of us."
