You can use the postLoad event from doctrine and inject everything you want into the entity. The event listener looks like:

    getEntity();
        if(!($document instanceof MyEntity)){
            return;
        }
        $document->setEntityManager($eventArgs->getEntityManager());

    }
}

and service.yml:

services:
app.myentity.listener:
  class: AppBundle\EventListener\MyEntityListener
  tags:
    - { name: doctrine.event_listener, event: postLoad }

Of cource your Entity needs the method setEntityManager and your're ready.
