He was seen leaving Old Trafford after the game on crutches, and was spotted on the supports again six days after suffering the injury.
However, Garnacho was seen in Cheshire on Saturday afternoon walking without crutches outside Cibo Restaurant in Hale Village.
And last Monday he stepped up his recovery from injury by putting football boots back on his feet.
There is optimism he will return to action before the end of the season.
Garnacho was reportedly asked if he was travelling to Wembley for United’s FA Cup semi-final clash against Brighton, and said he would be in training instead.
An exact date for his return is yet to be confirmed.
But Erik ten Hag revealed earlier this month that he expects Garnacho to be back for the “final stages” of the campaign.
Speaking on April 7, Ten Hag said on Garnacho’s return: “We have something in our heads, but I don’t want – he will definitely be back before the end of the season.

“I think he will be in the final stages, but I don’t want to bring so much pressure on the medical and Garnacho to set a date when to be back.”
The Red Devils have eight more Prem games to play, plus tomorrow’s FA Cup semi-final and potential final if Ten Hag and Co beat the Seagulls.
Garnacho has played 29 times for United this season, scoring four goals and providing five assists.
The youngster has enjoyed a breakthrough campaign under Ten Hag, and could yet have a part to play before the season comes to an end.
