Jarrod Bowen Out After Foot Fracture

West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen has suffered a fractured left foot during the team's 5-0 defeat to Liverpool, leaving him sidelined for an extended period as confirmed by the club. Bowen, who attempted to continue playing after the injury but was substituted after an hour, has been instrumental for West Ham this season, scoring six goals and providing four assists. Manager Julen Lopetegui expressed uncertainty regarding the timeline for Bowen's recovery, emphasizing the need for other players to step up in his absence. The injury compounds West Ham's challenges as they sit 13th in the Premier League, eight points clear of the relegation zone, with a tough match against Manchester City approaching. In a positive development, striker Michail Antonio has been discharged from the hospital following recovery from a broken leg sustained in a car accident. Bowen expressed optimism about his return in a social media post, stating he looks forward to getting back on the pitch as soon as possible.
