West Ham United supporters will be ecstatic with an image Jarrod Bowen shared via his Instagram account.
The 28-year-old sustained a foot injury during the 5-0 loss against Liverpool on 29 December and is expected to make an earlier-than-expected return in February.
And there is now hope of an even earlier comeback as Bowen took to Instagram on Tuesday (14 January) to post an image of himself wearing football boots again, suggesting he has already returned to the field.
West Ham United desperate for Jarrod Bowen return
The England international is West Ham through and through, but even the most loyal connections can come at a cost.
Bowen has established himself as an undisputed fan favourite during his time at the London Stadium and has deep ties to East London due to his engagement to Dani Dyer, daughter of iconic actor Danny Dyer.
However, the captain deserves more than his teammates are offering him this season, with only a seven-point gap to the relegation zone, which could be even less upon his return from injury.
Despite Graham Potter’s new leadership, the cruel reality remains that the Irons could be pulled into a fierce relegation battle without Bowen.
Furthermore, Premier League leaders Liverpool have been urged to test the Irons’ resolve with a bid for the captain, an offer that could prove too tempting to resist at this stage of his career.
He is undoubtedly in the top echelon of performers in the top flight, but if West Ham cannot match his ambitions, it is hard to envision Bowen committing the rest of his remaining career in East London.
The Hammers faithful can rest assured with this latest display of loyalty but until results improve on the pitch, his future will stay a hot topic of debate.
