West Ham defender Aaron Cresswell is at risk of missing the games against Lincoln City and Sheffield United, according to Dr Rajpal Brar.
The injury expert claims that there is a chance of re-injury with hamstring blows so the Hammers medical staff will be cautious over green-lighting his return.
David Moyes said that he felt his hamstring in the TSC Europa League clash and has been missing in action since then.
Zone, Brar, a specialist in Physical Therapy and Sports Scientist, said:
“Really difficult to say on severity until testing is completed but he won’t be risked until fit.
The Hammers travel to Sincil Bank to take on Lincoln in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday, 27 September – a game Cresswell would’ve played had he been fit.
This season, Emerson has been the go to option at left-back for Moyes with the Englishman no longer a first-team regular.
It seemed that Cresswell was on his way out in the summer with Wolves showing an interest and it remains to be seen if he does end up leaving in January.
In other West Ham news, a Hammers star has the same conversation with a manager as James Maddison did before he joined Tottenham Hotspur.
