According to The West Ham Way, Carroll has been ruled out of Sunday’s game against Bournemouth and could be sidelined for two months.

The match on Sunday will be West Ham’s first Premier League game at their new London Stadium and comes nearly a year to the day after they lost 4-3 at home to Eddie Howe’s men.

Both teams will be looking for their first points after losing in the first gameweek to Chelsea and Manchester United respectively. Before that they played in August 2015 and West Ham won the game 3 – 4.

Speaking to the Hammers official website after the match, Bilic said: “We are disappointed with the equaliser because we probably had the game under control”.

West Ham United boss Slaven Bilic has revealed that injured new signing Andre Ayew could spend less than three months in the treatment room.

“There’s no days off, no hours off and we have a big game”. Fears have been expressed about whether the febrile atmosphere of Upton Park can be recreated, but given the undoubted passion of many West Ham fans, I don’t think there’ll be a long-term problem.

His latest setback also adds to a growing casualty list for Bilic.

In the other dugout on Sunday, Eddie Howe has revealed Bournemouth have only one remaining transfer target.

The game very much remains in the balance but although they will feel that a precious victory away from home should have been theirs, they will be marginal favourites as a result of that away goal. West Ham will hope to get off to a good start in their new home and will want to make it a fortress if they are to stand any chance of qualifying for European football for the third successive season.

“At this time it is too early to put a time-frame on his potential return date but Andre is facing a significant rehabilitation period
