Eriksen had become a key figure under Ten Hag, making 31 appearances in total this season before sustaining the injury after a tackle from Andy Carroll during an FA Cup victory over second-division Reading. "The good news is Christian Eriksen is back in training and he will be back tomorrow in the squad,” Ten Hag said at a news conference ahead of Everton's visit to Old Trafford.

We feared that we lost him for the whole season. It was a really bad tackle and it was really also a bad injury he had. But he's a little bit ahead of schedule so we are very happy with that.” Fourth-place United is tied on points with Newcastle, which has a superior goal differential, and is three points ahead of fifth-place Tottenham.
