However, he may be back on the pitch very soon if Fellaini's latest social media video is anything to go by.
Fellaini shared a video on his Instagram story on Saturday morning of Ibrahimovic taking part in some shooting drills at the club's Carrington training base.
The Belgium midfielder, who is also getting ready to return from a knee injury and may be fit to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, captioned his video: 'Don't compare a lion with a human.'
Meanwhile Fellaini, who travelled down to London with the United squad on the eve of the clash with Chelsea, has not featured for his club after picking up a knee injury for Belgium against Bosnia on October 7.
He will be hoping for some game time on Sunday against Antonio Conte's men as United look to maintain the pressure on Premier League leaders Manchester City.
United currently sit second in the top flight, five points behind City after their opening 10 league games of the season.
Ibrahimovic enjoyed a fine debut season with United, scoring 28 goals in all competitions
