Following additional evaluation for the head injury sustained during Sunday’s match against Fulham, West Ham teenager George Earthy has been discharged from the hospital.
The 19-year-old collided with teammate Edson Alvarez shortly after entering the game as a substitute in the 2-0 loss.
After receiving medical care for approximately seven minutes, midfielder Earthy was stretchered off the field and transported to the hospital.
“George is back home,” said West Ham performance director Richard Collinge.
“We will continue to monitor him over the coming days as he completes the graduated return to play programme.”
West Ham said Earthy, who made his Premier League debut for the Hammers in the game against Fulham on Sunday, would follow Football Association and Premier League concussion guidelines before returning to play.
