Niclas Fullkrug will not participate in West Ham’s match against Ipswich Town due to an ongoing injury issue, as reported by ExWHUemployee. The insider mentioned on October 2 that the German striker is expected to miss the game at the London Stadium on Saturday, October 5.
Since joining from Borussia Dortmund, Fullkrug has played only 63 minutes, with his recovery taking “longer than expected.” It’s anticipated that he will return after the international break.
Fullkrug’s arrival at West Ham was highly anticipated following his impressive performance at the EUROs with Germany. However, injuries have hindered his progress, and manager Julen Lopetegui seems to be easing him into the starting lineup—a decision he might reconsider given the current setback.
As a result, West Ham will need to depend on Danny Ings and Michail Antonio for the upcoming match against Ipswich, who pose a challenging threat. The striking pair must capitalize on their opportunities if Lopetegui hopes to achieve a much-needed victory after three league games without a win.
