Marko Arnautovic could feature for West Ham in their Friday Night Football clash against Leicester after a scan revealed he did not break his thumb in last Sunday’s 2-0 defeat at Watford.
The Austria winger was withdrawn in the 74th minute at Vicarage Road after being accidentally trod on by Watford defender Marvin Zeegelaar.
It was feared Arnautovic could join a growing injury list at West Ham, but a scan has revealed no damage to his thumb.
He is likely to figure in manager David Moyes' matchday squad for the game against the Foxes at London Stadium, live on Sky Sports.
Arnautovic has made 10 appearances for the Hammers since his £24m summer move from Stoke but is yet to score for his new side.
His availability will be a welcome boost for Moyes, who is set to oversee his first home game for West Ham against Claude Puel's side.
