Ndidi, 27, has been sidelined since being withdrawn in the 58th minute of Leicester's 2-2 draw with Brighton on 28 December.
However, Van Nistelrooy has provided a positive update on the Nigerian international's fitness, saying: "Wilf is making good progress in his rehabilitation. Hopefully, he can be a part of team training at some point next week."
Ndidi has registered four assists in 15 league appearances for Leicester this season, and his return to training will be a welcome boost for the Foxes ahead of their match against Tottenham on Sunday.
