Midfielder Pedro Obiang is confident he can return to fitness ahead of West Ham’s pre-season of Europe in the coming months.

Obiang had been out of action since suffering a leg injury during the defeat to Leicester City back in March, however has been since working hard to regain his fitness and get back to action as soon as possible.

“I’m coming back to Rush Green to continue my fitness work in a few days because I have to work for to be ready for the 5th of July,” he told whufc.com on the second anniversary of his arrival in east London.

“I been on holiday with my family and some friends to Mykonos and Athens in Greece, Belgrade in Serbia and Montenegro, which was both interesting and relaxing, but now is the time to think about my work because I want to be ready to train and play.”

The 25-year-old has become some what of a fan favourite at the London Stadium over the past season, and his injury was greeted with much dismay from the Hammers faithful after having made 30 appearances last season.
