West Ham United could welcome back Manuel Lanzini very soon.
According to Football.London, playmaker Manuel Lanzini will be travelling with the West Ham United squad to their training camp in Spain.
West Ham drew at London rivals Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon, with Mark Noble opening the scoring from the penalty spot before a late Wilfried Zaha equaliser.
The Hammers now don’t have a game until a week on Friday, and that will give Manuel Pellegrini and co time to get away and train elsewhere.
West Ham will be travelling to Spain for a mid-season training camp, often referred to as ‘warm weather training’, and there is a real boost about Manuel Lanzini.
Football.London report that Lanzini will be travelling with the rest of the squad, with defender Fabian Balbuena also heading out to step up his recovery.
With Lanzini out of action for nearly a year now with a major knee injury, he is attempting to get back to first-team football, but some wondered whether he would travel to Spain or stay at home for rehabilitation.
It now seems that the playmaker will be travelling with the rest of the West Ham squad, which is a major sign that the 25-year-old is nearing a return to Premier League action.
West Ham fans will now have real hope that Lanzini could play a part against Fulham a week on Friday, which would be a huge boost given that Samir Nasri is currently out injured.
