West Ham have been dealt a massive injury blow with the news midfielder Dimitri Payet could be ruled out for three months.
The French midfielder has been a major factor in West Ham’s fine start to the season following his £10.7 million summer move from Marseille. But Payet, who has hit five goals in 14 appearances, suffered an ankle injury after a challenge from James McCarthy in the 1-1 draw against Everton on Saturday. And Jack Sullivan, the son of Hammers co-owner David Sullivan, revealed the extent of the 28-year-old’s injury on Twitter:
Sadly payet will be out for about 3 months! Huge miss for the team. How the Everton player didn't get sent off amazes me!! #COYI
