Manchester United star Christian Eriksen has revealed his recovery from a serious ankle injury is ‘going well’.

The Dane has been out since suffering the ankle problem thanks to a heavy challenge from Reading’s Andy Carroll in an FA Cup tie on 28 January.

The injury saw the Red Devils bring Marcel Sabitzer in on loan from Bayern Munich late in the January transfer window.

“Yeah, it is going well. I have just started being outside as you saw with football boots on,” Eriksen told the UTD Podcast series of his Instagram post.

“And then we take it from there, that is the next step. I have been in the gym for some weeks now and now it is time to do the next rehab session outside.”
