Earlier after sustaining the injury, he shared a post to thank the support he recieved from fans all around the world.

"We have something in our heads, and he will definitely be back before the end of the season," said Erik Ten Hag as quoted Manchester United.

"I think he will be in the final stages, but I don't want to bring so much pressure on the medical staff and Garnacho to set a date when he will be back."

"This is part of football and our profession," he wrote. "However, I am already focused in my recovery. God has taught me to never give up and I will make sure I am back stronger than ever," continued Erik Ten Hag.
