Alou Diarra is currently facing a challenging period in his career following his recent transfer from Olympique de Marseille to West Ham. The French international midfielder, who primarily plays in the defensive midfield position, is dealing with a reported calf injury. Since joining West Ham, the former Lyon player has only managed to make two appearances for the Hammers. Unfortunately, this injury has forced him to miss the last two matches against Sunderland (1-1) in the Championship and Wigan (1-4) in the League Cup, and he is expected to be sidelined for a few weeks.
Sam Allardyce, the manager of the London club, holds high expectations for Diarra and has expressed his confidence in the midfielder’s abilities.
