Ghana international Andre Ayew has expressed gratitude to West Ham's fans for their support during his recovery from a thigh injury.
Ayew returned to the pitch in midweek during West Ham's EFL Cup game with Chelsea after been out for over 3 months.
Ayew's fitness represents a huge boost for Slaven Bilic's side, who are still languishing in the bottom half of the Premier League table, and the Ghana international has thanked supporters for keeping him motivated during a difficult spell.
"I can't thank the medical staff of West Ham enough for the big role they played in getting me back into shape.
"Most importantly I want to thank my West Ham fans for standing by me and motivating me when I was down."
West Ham travel to Everton this weekend and Ayew is expected to receive more game time off the bench as the Hammers go in search of their fourth to-flight victory of the season.
