Lukasz Fabianski will be ready for his return to first-team action for West Ham United in three to four weeks, as reported by Football Insider.
What’s the story?
When Fabianski crumpled to the floor in pain against AFC Bournemouth, it was pretty clear that he was going to be missed during his absence, seeing as he was last season’s Hammer of the Year.

However, it won’t have been expected that things would be quite this bad, as just one point has been taken from the six games following his injury.
Having continued his recovery from surgery, the Poland international is now said to be three to four weeks away from getting back onto the pitch for West Ham.
An end to the nightmare
The period following Fabianski’s injury has been a nightmare for West Ham, due to the aforementioned record, and Roberto has been a big part of that.
Looking at the 3-2 loss against Tottenham Hotspur, he was beaten far too easily by Heung-min Son for the opener and allowed Harry Kane’s header to go through his hands for Spurs’ final goal of the game.
There are various other examples of his calamity during this period, with the matches against Burnley and Newcastle United offering some of the most obvious examples.
Having Lukasz Fabianski available could put an end to this nightmare and hopefully help West Ham push forward to start getting some more points on the board and get their season going again.
In other news, West Ham fans weren’t happy with Roberto after his latest performance.
