Jarrod Bowen Recovering Ahead of Schedule

West Ham United head coach Graham Potter has indicated that forward Jarrod Bowen may return from his fractured foot earlier than expected, as he has begun jogging with the club's physios. Initially anticipated to be sidelined for six weeks following his injury against Liverpool, Bowen's progress is seen as a positive sign. Potter emphasized the importance of a safe and proper rehabilitation process, noting Bowen's eagerness to return to play. Meanwhile, West Ham faces a striker crisis with Niclas Fullkrug and Michail Antonio also injured, leaving Danny Ings as the only fit striker. Despite the need for reinforcements, Potter cautioned against making hasty transfer decisions, stating that finding a quality striker in January is complex. The club is exploring options, including potential moves for Marcus Rashford and Evan Ferguson.
