A status update on Michail Antonio’s injury has been released. A few days ago, while on international duty with Jamaica, he suffered a knee injury. West Ham United is currently awaiting the results of a scan.
Michail Antonio, a striker for West Ham, started for Jamaica in their match against Canada on Saturday, but he only played for twenty-one minutes before hobbling off the field due to a knee injury.
Since then, the ailment has been determined to be a knee ligament problem, and according to one estimate, the 33-year-old may miss nine months of play.
David Moyes, the manager of the Hammers, will be cursing his luck given how thin our center-forward department is.
Even though Antonio hasn’t played well this season, losing him for an extended amount of time will be devastating.
On the other hand, there is some slightly better news circulating about the Jamaican international’s injuries today.
And while such kinds of injuries are known to take three to twelve weeks to cure, the Hammers are reportedly optimistic that Antonio’s absence won’t be on the “harsher end of the scale.”
That sounds far more preferable than Mikey being out of commission for nine months.
Despite this, we will still be lacking in offensive talent if the 33-year-old stays out, therefore Moyes will surely be trying to add a new striker in January.
After withdrawing from the England camp owing to a knee injury, Jarrod Bowen is also concerning.
It seems like we were managing our injuries rather well before this unfortunate international break, but now we might be having serious problems.
Nevertheless, the most recent Michail Antonio injury update is unquestionably more encouraging.
