West Ham manager, Slaven Bilic, has disclosed that Nigerian international, Victor Moses, will be sidelined with injury until 2016.
The 24-year-old has been ruled out with a hamstring problem and becomes the latest in the London club to be sidelined for weeks.
The winger undergone a scan on Tuesday to reveal the extent of his injury.
Moses, on loan from Chelsea to West Ham, pulled up in the game at Old Trafford against Manchester United, and was replaced by Spanish midfielder Pedro Obiang just 37 minutes into the Barclays Premier League match last weekend.
Bilic has described the growing injury list at West Ham as “a blow” to their impressive start to the campaign.
He said Moses is “out for four to six weeks.”
Moses joins the quintet of Winston Reid, Dimitri Payet, Enner Valencia, Diafra Sakho and Manuel Lanzini on the sidelines until next year.
“Victor is out for four to six weeks. It’s a blow, we have had six injuries since the Everton game. Before that we had a full squad, then Payet and Valencia were injured against Everton and now we have four muscle injuries,” said Bilic.
The Nigerian has made 10 league appearances for West Ham and has scored once as well as put in two assists.
