Manchester United centre-back Leny Yoro has provided an encouraging update concerning his injury, taking to Instagram to upload a clip of himself working out in the gym.
The Frenchman got injured on July 28 during a friendly against Arsenal in the United States of America while on pre-season tour with the Red Devils, limping off after 35 minutes.
The Man United summer arrival was spotted on crutches and wearing a protective boot after the game but is now walking unaided in a huge injury boost.
The 18-year-old joined the Old Trafford club from Lille for an initial £52.2 million, with another £6.7m included in add-ons if he meets certain clauses in his contract.
Yoro is the most expensive player aged 18 or younger and one of the most expensive centre-backs in history, and he is eager to get back to action.
He is expected to be back before the end of the year, and his recent video hints at that.
Man United could also have Dutch left-back Tyrell Malacia back in action in the coming weeks after he returned to light training this week.
The Netherlands international missed the whole of last term due to injury but is now set to return to first-team training very soon.
The Red Devils are not short of options at the back right now after also signing Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui from Bayern Munich in the summer, but having both Yoro and Malacia edging closer to returning is a much-needed boost manager Erik ten Hag could do with right now.
