West Ham United centre-back Nayef Aguerd is closing in on a return to the Hammers’ first-team after spending over three months out of action with an ankle injury.
West Ham spent £30million on signing Aguerd from Stade Rennais in the summer, with the Moroccan international making his debut in claret and blue during a friendly against Reading in July.
Three days later, Aguerd made his second start in friendly action against Scottish side Rangers at Ibrox, although his involvement was cut short after suffering an ankle injury that required surgery.
