The Brazilian midfielder's campaign was cut short last season
after he suffered cruciate ligament damage against West Ham in
February.
And he was involved in another major scare when was dragged
unconcious from a car seconds before it exploded following an
horrific crash in Portugal last month.
But the 22-year-old insists he has put both incidents behind him
and is now fully focused on winning a place in United's starting
XI.
He said: "I'm so happy and excited to be back again after six
months without football.
"I've been so happy ever since I got back to Carrington and I
just can't wait to play again.
"I'm feeling good. I've been training for two weeks and I'm very
happy. I think maybe very soon I'll come back again and start
playing normally with the rest of the team.
"I have had no problems at all with the injury. I'm just running
and training now really hard."
