Nketiah (strain) won't be available before April, according to coach Igoar Glasner. "Eddie won't be available before April. So we're pushing hard to have him back in the team."
ANALYSIS
Nketiah won't be available before April after already missing the last 10 matches due to a strain injury. The forward had been operating in a reserve role prior to the setback and is likely to return to that spot once he is fit again, especially with Jean-Philippe Mateta nearing a return and Jorgen Strand Larsen arriving during the winter transfer window.

Nketiah (strain) is eyeing a return to play in April, according to manager Oliver Glasner. "I mentioned it [last week]: Eddie had a setback and it will take him now a few more weeks. We are now at the end of February. We expect him back in training... I think it will be the end of March, but because we don't have games, it looks like it will be April [on the pitch]."

We don't know exactly how long it will take [to recover] - we'll have to take it game by game. It's a little bit his muscle, but we don't know right now how serious it is.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could've joined West Ham
FCrystal Palace
OUT
February 5, 2026
Nketiah could've joined West Ham United before the deadline, according to The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Nketiah was close to joining West Ham, as the Hammers had agreed to a £27 million deal for the Crystal Palace striker. However, Nketiah suffered yet another injury, and that ended West Ham's chances of landing the 26-year-old striker. West Ham did strengthen their attack in January, though, after adding Pablo and Valentin Castellanos.
