Sheffield United striker Rhian Brewster was reportedly close to tears after pulling up with yet another hamstring injury during the Blades 2-0 win away at West Bromwich Albion over the weekend.
The young forward has suffered persistent injuries dating back to his days as a Liverpool player and missed the entire second half of last season after picking up a similar problem. He was forced to undergo surgery to try and rectify the issue, causing him to miss the remainder of the 2021/22 season from February onwards.
However, going under the knife seemed to have the desired impact initially, given Brewster has been a regular at Bramall Lane this season. The 22-year-old has played in 16 of the opening 17 games this term, netting just once with a single assist to match.
