Having suffered a incident with an advertising hoarding during the defeat against Leicester City, could Elliott Ward be eliglible for a first team return in just a few weeks time?
The prognosis on his injury over in Rome certainly suggests that could be the case, with manager Eddie Howe being quoted in the Bournemouth Evening Echo as saying: "Hopefully, we are looking at four weeks. Elliott will have a couple of weeks’ rest followed by a further two weeks to build up his fitness".
