West Ham defender James Tomkins has undergone surgery on his dislocated shoulder, although the Hammers hope the 25 year old will be back before the end of the season. Stijn Vandenbroucke, West Ham's head of medical and sports science, confirmed Tomkins and young defender Doneil Henry have gone under the knife
"Unfortunately, we have had two setbacks in the defence," he said.
"James Tomkins underwent successful surgery on his dislocated shoulder on Wednesday and will now commence his rehabilitation, with a view to him returning to fitness before the end of the season.
"Doneil Henry injured his hamstring during his loan spell with Blackburn Rovers and, after consulting with a specialist, he will have an operation at the end of the week.
"Winston Reid is recovering and rehabbing well from the hamstring injury he suffered against Chelsea on 4 March. He is working hard on his fitness and is getting closer to a return."
