'Always a pleasure having these two amazing athletes working out at #club39,' the post said. 

The striker sustained his injury in April in the final minutes of Manchester United's 2-1 victory over Anderlecht in the semi-final of the Europa League. 

It curtailed his season at Old Trafford and as a result, Ibrahimovic was not offered a new deal at United when it expired at the end of the last campaign.

But it is widely expected that United fans could have a chance to see him in a red shirt again.

Ibrahimovic has the use of United's Carrington training complex when he needs for his rehabilitation and United boss Jose Mourinho has hinted he is open to re-signing him when he is fit enough to play again.

'Maybe he'll stay with us,' Mourinho said before United's Super Cup defeat by Real Madrid. 'He's not got a contract, but he's still close to Manchester, and the fact we are involved in the Super Cup now is also his merit.' 

Ibrahimovic scored 17 Premier League goals last season.
