Espirito Santo provides optimistic update on injured West Ham star | OneFootball

Nuno Espirito Santo says he hopes to welcome back West Ham striker Pablo from injury in the near future.

The Portuguese striker joined the Hammers in January from Gil Vicente but has suffered a muscle injury.

“We have to go day by day and assess him,” Espirito Santo said on the striker.

“He’s getting better each day so hopefully he can join us soon.”

West Ham take on Bournemouth at home on Saturday, sitting 18th in the table but only three points behind Nottingham Forest in 17th.

“I see it as another game that we have to focus on ourselves, do our jobs, ignore what’s happening with other teams,” Espirito Santo said.

“Massive game for us, important game, at home. I expect, again, a good atmosphere at the London Stadium with the fans helping us so we can overcome it together.

“There is a commitment, a desire to get out of this situation and this desire is every day.”
