Following West Ham United’s comeback win over Burnley, David Moyes provided a new injury update on Jarrod Bowen.
West Ham fans were devastated to see Danny Ings start against Burnley in place of injured duo Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio.
According to David Moyes, the Hammers went into the game at Turf Moor knowing Antonio would be out for two or three weeks.
However, West Ham fans hoped Bowen, who injured his knee during England training, would be available after Moyes stated that he hoped he would be.
Bowen Ings disappointed yet again, but Divin Mubama injected some life into the forward line for the final 30 minutes and helped West Ham come from behind to win yet again.
Bowen is the engine that drives West Ham. And the proof was in the fact that he missed only his third Premier League match of the 139 the Hammers have played since his arrival in January 2020.
As a result, fans are understandably concerned about the situation surrounding their leading scorer.
Following West Ham’s comeback win over Burnley, Moyes has issued a new injury update on Bowen.
‘I hope…’
In his post-match press conference, the Scot said, ‘I hope’ Bowen is okay and revealed he wasn’t ready to face Burnley.
“Jarrod had the injury with England,” said Moyes.
“I hope Jarrod isn’t too bad.
“But he just wasn’t ready to play and we couldn’t get him ready for the game.”
Bowen is said to have fluid on his knee, which can keep him out for a week to three weeks.
West Ham fans and manager David Moyes will be hoping that a week of rest and rehabilitation will suffice.
Because he is far too important a player to take any chances of making the condition worse.
