West Brom receives boost as fantastic star shares brand new injury update with return date

Jeremy Sarmiento has outlined a revised schedule for his comeback after sustaining an injury, expressing his eagerness to rejoin West Brom soon. The Colombian forward, who has been recovering from a quadriceps injury since being sidelined before the 1-0 win against Sheffield Wednesday on October 3, conveyed his anticipation of playing for the Baggies once more.

Back when the injury occurred, Carlos Corberan expressed surprise at the length of Sarmiento’s absence after extensive scans and assessments by the physio team following his muscle discomfort [source: West Brom official website]. In an interview with the Colombian news outlet El Universo on October 16, the winger shared, “I’m really looking forward to rejoining the team. It won’t be long before I return to the field.”

Sarmiento discussed his rehabilitation plan, saying, “As you know, the plan with Brighton was to get back into the habit of playing, gradually increasing my playing time, which is crucial for my recovery from these injuries. That’s what we’re working on now. When I’m fully fit, I expect to play more minutes.” He also mentioned Corberan’s plan for his development at West Brom: “He has a solid plan for me, taking into account my injuries, and he aims to help me improve as a player. I’m patient, and I believe my best is yet to come.”

Sarmiento is eager to secure more consistent playing time after his return from injury. He has not yet made his first start in the Championship, but he was close to earning that opportunity before his injury woes hindered his progress. Corberan’s experiments with the team’s forward line would likely have provided Sarmiento with the chance to start in the creative wide position, typically occupied by either Jed Wallace or Grady Diangana, with the former occasionally playing upfront.

The positive news for West Brom fans is that Sarmiento’s time on the sidelines is nearing its end, and he should soon be available for selection. The hope is that he can maintain a longer period of fitness. As the club gradually recovers from an ongoing injury crisis, there is a growing sense of anticipation among everyone associated with The Hawthorns.
