West Ham United have been hit with the news that Manuel Lanzini could potentially miss this weekend’s key Premier League clash against Southampton.
Lanzini was on the scoresheet as Argentina recorded a 2-0 win over Italy at Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium on Friday night.
However, according to an Argentine journalist, Lanzini missed training on Sunday after picking up a knock.

The attacker is now seen as a doubt for Argentina’s international friendly against Spain on Tuesday night, and West Ham fans are concerned that the playmaker could now miss Saturday’s clash with Southampton.
There is no downplaying the importance of the Southampton match as West Ham return to the field for the first time since the 3-0 Burnley defeat at the London Stadium, which led to a host of trouble.
Understandably, the club’s fans are feeling pretty grim as they face the prospect of being without the 25-year-old against the Saints.
