Detective Constable Oliver Maddox, of GMP's City of Manchester district, said: "Because the victim was in hospital for a month, the crime wasn't reported to us.
"We are determined to find his attacker and bring him to justice and are keen to speak to anyone who was in the area at the time and may have seen anything, or any drivers with dashcam footage."
Anyone with information about this incident should contact police on 0161 856 4305 quoting log 1573-06/02/2023.
