An injury to West Ham star Jarrod Bowen has been confirmed by a source inside club but there’s some good news for David Moyes.
There’s no rest for the wicked and West Ham face another big week as the fixture schedule really ramps up.
The Hammers got back to winning ways with a 2-0 victory over Sheffield United on Saturday.
Now focus turns to big games in the Europa League at Freiburg and at home against in-form Newcastle United in the next week.
As always Jarrod Bowen will be key to West Ham’s hopes. He makes the team tick as he proved again with a slick goal and brilliant all round display at the weekend.
Injury to West Ham star Jarrod Bowen confirmed by source inside club but there’s some good news for David Moyes
So West Ham fans were understandably concerned when he was seen limping and in clear discomfort when substituted late on at the London Stadium against the Blades.
We reported on the knock hoping for positive news from West Ham ahead of the trip to Germany before Newcastle come to town next Sunday.
Now the injury to West Ham star Bowen has been confirmed by source inside club but there’s some good news for David Moyes.
A source inside West Ham has confirmed to Claret and Hugh that Bowen picked up a slight knock in the game.
But in response to our report they claim he will be fit for Newcastle.
‘Very little problem’
That will keep his remarkable record going of having only missed two of the last 132 Premier League matches since signing for West Ham.
The report does, however, suggest Bowen might be rested for the Europa League trip to Germany.
“Bowen was carrying a slight limp as he was subbed in extra time yesterday per Hammers News but our sources claim there in no problem with the player,” Claret and Hugh state.
“He is unlikely to be involved in the Europa League match anyway as David Moyes again rings the changes within the squad.
“We were told earlier that the player had suffered no more than a knock during the game against Sheffield United and that there was very little problem that a couple of days rest wouldn’t put right…
“Thankfully our information is that he will be fine for the Newcastle game.”
