Encouraging Christian Eriksen update as Man Utd star recovers from ankle injury

Christian Eriksen will return for Manchester United before the end of the season, according to boss Erik ten Hag.

The midfielder was ruled out until late April after suffering an ankle injury in an FA Cup tie against Reading on January 31st at Old Trafford. Asked when he felt Eriksen would return, Ten Hag said: “I think he will play, yeah, definitely. But I can’t tell now an expectation, but I think his progress with the rehab is okay. It's going according to plan, so we will definitely see him, but not before the international break.”

Asked if he had kept Eriksen involved with the squad during his enforced absence, Ten Hag said: “Oh, yes, he is. But his main focus at the moment is to get back as soon as possible because we need all the players.”
