Ibrahimovic ‘returns’ to Manchester United

Zlatan Ibrahimovic may have been released by Manchester United on July 1, but the Swedish striker is still using their Carrington training ground on a daily basis.

Ibrahimovic is officially a free agent, after manager Jose Mourinho decided against renewing his one-year deal. But the club has informed him that he can continue to use the facilities at their Aon Training Complex, while he recovers from a serious knee injury.

He was seen being driven away from the training ground on Wednesday afternoon, following another session of rehabilitation.

The 35-year-old required surgery in his right knee, after suffering a cruciate ligament injury against Anderlecht in the Europa League in April.

Although he is not expected to return to action until 2018, Atletico Madrid, AC Milan and LA Galaxy have all credited with an interest in recent weeks.
