West Ham star Manuel Lanzini returns to training as he steps up recovery from knee injury
West Ham midfielder Manuel Lanzini has returned to light training as he continues his recovery from the serious knee injury he suffered before the World Cup.
The 25-year-old playmaker joined in with first-team training for the first time yesterday.
Although the Argentina international is still some way off being ready for a comeback, his return to training is a major boost for Hammers boss Manuel Pellegrini.
Lanzini had surgery on his right knee in June after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament while training with Argentina on the eve of the World Cup.
Meanwhile, right-back Ryan Fredericks could return against AFC Wimbledon in the FA Cup on Saturday after more than two months out with a shin injury.

This is welcome news especially as I’d managed to forget he was only 25.

Is he so injured that he can’t sign his name on the dotted line?

Good news, and I really wish him well. However, I have noticed that following previous injuries he has tended to take quite a while to get back into any kind of form, and this injury was far worse than anything he has had before. We have to face up to the fact that he may not be the same player. I shall be hoping for the best but expecting the worst.

I'd imagine it'll be the club holding off on the new deal, not Manu himself. It's a business now - much as I like the guy, there is no mileage in paying him shedloads of cash every week if it transpires he can no longer perform at this level / at all.

Didn't realise that about his contract. 3bmore years left. Lovely. They should get to business on upping his wage and putting pen to paper on a 5 year deal this summer.
