Heinze:

"I expect to play again in one month.

"The doctor of the Argentinian team Donato Villani has evaluated me and we are all optimistic.

"I have worked hard in Cadiz and the results have been very positive.

"I have a bet with Alex Ferguson on my return to the field this season and I am going to win it.

"I think about the World Cup in Germany as the big final target for my rehab."


Argentine medic Dr Donato Villani:

"In a month, Gabriel will be able to join his squad.

"He can then train on a par with his team-mates.

"This does not mean that he is going to play.

"At that moment it will be evaluated as to whether it is or not he can try and play."
