Eberechi Eze is currently dealing with an ankle injury that has caused some confusion over how long he will be out. The England international suffered from ligament damage during the Eagles' defeat to Luton Town on 25 November. The severity of the injury can range from minor to major, and this is where the confusion lies.
Eze himself is optimistic that he will be back in training this weekend, but the club's medical staff have said that the injury is such that it will take a longer period of time to recover from. On this matter, Palace boss Roy Hodgson said, "I know what I want, but I don’t know what I’m going to get. I think he’s going to attempt to train with us over the next couple of days, which is great, that’s extremely positive, but I don’t know quite how optimistic I can be."
Hodgson would certainly like to have one of his star players back in action as soon as possible. Palace host Bournemouth on Wednesday evening, but it looks unlikely that Eze will be able to play in that game. However, the situation should become clearer when he has put the injury to the test in training this week.
The Eagles have only won one of their last seven Premier League matches, making the return of a key player like Eze even more important. Ultimately, only time will tell how long Eze will be out for.
