Head coach Pete Wilkins confirmed that the winger is being pencilled in to face Munster in May
Connacht have been given a huge boost as they bid to reach the knockout stage in the URC.
Head coach Pete Wilkins confirmed this morning that Irish winger Mack Hansen is almost ready for action.
Wilkins said there was an outside chance he might have been ready for Saturday's trip to play Dragons.
He looks set to travel to Thomond Park to face Munster in their following match.
The 26-year-old has been out of action since dislocating his shoulder at the start of the year in a match against Munster.
