Kante named PFA Player of the Year
The 35-year-old, who has scored 28 goals in his debut season for the Red Devils, was injured during last week’s Europa League quarter-final second-leg win over Anderlecht.
Batshuayi has not enjoyed as much success during his maiden campaign in the English top tier, having failed to make a single Premier League start under Chelsea boss Antonio Conte.
The Belgian has struck four goals in seven cup appearances, however, and once in his 17 substitute league outings.
“#NoMatterTheColor wishing @iamzlatanibrahimovic a speedy and perfect recovery,” Batshuyi posted on Instagram in support of Ibrahimovic. “Knowing the guy, it should be a child’s play #ZlatanFact #respect”

Zlatan also took to social media to discuss the injury, thanking supporters for their support during a difficult period.

“First of all, thank you for all the support and love,” he said. “Its no news I got injured so I will be out of fotball for a while.
Premier League Team of the Year
“I will go through this like everythings else and come back even stronger. So far I played with one leg so it shouldn’t be any problem. One thing is for sure, I decide when its time to stop and nothing else. Giving up is not an option.
“See you soon.”
