'A bit more serious' - Ex now reveals potentially huge blow at West Ham

ExWHUemployee has revealed that West Ham United winger Said Benrahma could be out for the season with injury. 

Over the weekend, the Hammers thumped Norwich City 4-0 away from home – with the 26-year-old scoring twice. However, the game didn’t pass without some concern for club or player.

“Obviously, with only two weeks left of the season, whether he’ll play again this season, I’m not sure.

“But the scan results will determine that. And as soon as I actually know the conclusion of that, I shall let everyone know.”

With that in mind, fans will certainly be hoping he can feature again in the final weeks of the season – especially as
