Potter wants him back: West Ham recalls Ward-Prowse from Nottingham Forest loan

Central midfielder James Ward-Prowse is no longer a Nottingham Forest player.

Details: West Ham has officially announced today that Ward-Prowse is returning to the club from his loan spell at Forest.

The decision was made at the request of new Hammers boss Graham Potter, who sees Ward-Prowse as part of his plans.

This season, the former Southampton captain has played just 10 Premier League matches, registering one assist.

Reminder: Reports earlier suggested that West Ham is closing in on the signing of Brighton striker Evan Ferguson.
