West Ham United manager David Moyes has confirmed that he still isn’t sure whether Emerson will be fit to feature in the Irons’ Europa League clash with Freiburg.
Speaking in his pre-match press conference on Wednesday (13 March) the Hammers’ boss confirmed that he will have to wait and see how fit the Italian defender is before deciding on his involvement in Thursday’s (14 March) clash.
The Scotsman also confirmed that Maxwel Cornet has returned to first-team training having recovered from his latest injury woe, but the Ivorian winger won’t be fit in time to feature at the London Stadium on Thursday.
As quoted by West Ham’s website (13 March) he said: “We just need to see how Emerson is – that is the main one. Maxwel Cornet is back after receiving treatment, but he won’t make this one.”
Will Emerson be fit for West Ham United Europa League showdown v Freiburg?
It seems as though Emerson may be facing a race against time to feature for the Hammers’ on Thursday night. If he is unable to feature, it would be a huge blow to Moyes’ sides’ hopes as he has been one of their best players this season.
