Partakes in footwork and volley drills
Timetable estimates January return to pitch

WHAT HAPPENED? On social media platform X, formerly Twitter, West Brom posted a video of the American striker participating in training drills - his first since his Achilles injury last April.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Earlier this Fall, West Brom boss Carlos Corberan said that Dike's timetable for a return is still some time away. However, the ex-Orlando City star will take the pitch again in a few months time.

“He’s very committed with his recovery, but it’s a very long-term injury, so he’s one player that I cannot expect to play until January,” Corberan said.

WHAT NEXT FOR DARYL DIKE? The 23-year-old striker will continue his recovery before he makes his return to the pitch, which is expected to be in the new year.
