Full West Ham squad available for Premier League tie against Nottingham Forest as trio eye return

West Ham United manager David Moyes is set to have a near fully-fit squad available for Saturday’s Premier League match with Nottingham Forest at the London Stadium.

The Hammers head into their meeting with the Tricky Trees 18th in the Premier League and a point shy of safety, having lost 2-0 to Tottenham Hotspur last Sunday.

Going into the game against another side looking to beat the drop in Forest, West Ham boss Moyes could have a full squad at his disposal for the game.

Winger Maxwel Cornet, centre-back Kurt Zouma and midfielder Lucas Paqueta were the three players absent for the defeat at Spurs with calf, thigh and shoulder injuries respectively.

Cornet has missed just shy of five months of action, a run that has included all of the last 22 matches in all competitions. Zouma has missed just over a month of football with a thigh issue sustained on his return from knee surgery in last month’s 2-0 win over Everton, while Paqueta was forced off in the 1-1 draw with Chelsea a fortnight ago with a shoulder issue.

However, in his pre-match press conference on Friday, Moyes confirmed that Cornet and Zouma had trained this week, while Paqueta had done some light training, giving all three a chance of a return.

Here is a look at who could feature for the Hammers against Forest.
