Westham, who have been impressive this season, have suffered a rash of injuries at the start of the new year. The recently reinstated star striker, Michalee Antonio, was injured again during a recent training session and is expected to be out for 4 to 6 weeks. This sudden change has forced Westham to look for a replacement. It is reported that the team is targeting Montpellier's scorer Aiko Adams, who has made a big splash in Ligue 1 this season.
Michalee Antonio has been recovering from an injury since the end of November last year and was scheduled to make his comeback in the EFL Cup match against Bristol City. However, an unfortunate fall in pre-match practice saw the old injury flare up. According to Daily Mail UK, the Jamaican international's recovery will drag on for another four to six weeks. Meanwhile, Charlo Bowen and Lucas Berqueda were also injured in the last match, and Westham's squad is getting tighter. And a transfer deal for Danny Aggers to go out on loan to Wolves could be on hold as a result.
