West Ham United Hit by Fresh Injury Concern for £30k-per-week Star
West Ham United have been dealt another injury blow in the early stages of Graham Potter’s tenure. The London club will be without a key player for an extended period, according to recent reports.
West Ham’s Struggles Under Potter’s Leadership
Since Potter took over from Julen Lopetegui, the team’s performances have shown improvement, but positive results have been elusive. A recent defeat to Chelsea means Potter has secured just one victory in his first four Premier League matches. The Hammers currently sit in 15th place in the table.
Despite the setbacks, Potter remains optimistic about his team’s progress. Following the loss to Chelsea, he praised the team’s tactical intelligence and overall performance, feeling they were unlucky not to secure a point.
New Injury Concern Emerges
According to insider information from ExWhuEmployee, summer signing Crysencio Summerville is now expected to be sidelined for up to two months with a new hamstring injury. The Dutch player was on the verge of returning to fitness after a previous hamstring issue but has now suffered a more serious setback.
Summerville, who joined West Ham on a five-year contract worth £30,000 per week, was highly regarded for his creative abilities. However, he has had limited opportunities to showcase his talent at the London Stadium, starting only seven Premier League games this season.
This latest injury further tests West Ham’s squad depth and presents additional challenges for Potter as he seeks to improve the team’s league position.
