Daryl Dike is nearing his long-awaited return to action for West Brom and now an injury specialist has given his verdict on the return.
West Brom striker Daryl Dike has been out since suffering an Achilles injury back in April. The injury has kept him out since, however, it now looks as though a return is imminent.
Dike returned to training last week which signals that he is close to being ready, at such a vital point of the season for playoff-chasing West Brom.
Now an expert has suggested that Dike could only be a matter of weeks away from being in action at The Hawthorns once again.
Injury expert gives verdict
Speaking exclusively to West Brom News, Dr Rajpal Brar who is a specialist in Physical Therapy and Sports Scientist explained how soon Dike could return.
“If he’s returned to full team training, my guess would be around two weeks in full team training without any adverse effects.
“He does look sharp in the training videos and he could very well be back in early December for West Brom.“
Dike would be arriving just in time for the busiest period of the season for English football, his goals could be vital in helping West Brom make the jump into favourites to secure a playoff spot.
Dike scored seven goals and made one assist last season in just 23 games, a far more clinical record than most of Carlos Corberan’s side.
Therefore his return will be welcomed, one which could be the boost needed to secure vital points.
