West Ham United goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski will be out for up to two weeks due to inflammation of the scar tissue in his hip following surgery.
Fabianski, 34, underwent surgery for a muscle problem that he sustained in September and returned to action late last year, but he was substituted after only 13 minutes in last Friday’s 1-0 defeat at Sheffield United.
West Ham said scans confirmed the Pole suffered irritation of scar tissue, which is common after surgery.

“It’s good news in the sense that Lukasz hasn’t aggravated or suffered any recurrence of the previous injury,” West Ham medical head Richard Collinge said.
“We now just need to let the inflammation settle down and expect Lukasz to be available again within a couple of weeks.”
