He has missed all 13 of West Ham’s matches since the international break in March, where he came on twice for Italy off the bench against England and Malta.

The 24-year-old underwent knee surgery last month, with reports in Italy suggesting that he would not feature again for West Ham this season, with the striker facing a timescale of around two to three months for his return.

He had the operation in Rome, with the striker spending the early stages of his rehabilitation in his home country after surgery.

But now, West Ham defender Angelo Ogbonna has posted a picture of Scamacca back at the club, with the Italian posting via his Instagram story accompanied by a caption that reads: 'Look who is back'.
