Aleksander Mitrovic is in race against time to be fit for Fulham’s clash against West Ham with the Serbian striker 'still a doubt' due to foot ligament injury suffered in last weekend’s heavy Newcastle defeat

Aleksandar Mitrovic is a doubt for Fulham's Premier League match at West Ham on Sunday.

The Serbia international, who has scored six times in the top flight this season, was withdrawn in the first half of Fulham's 4-1 defeat against Newcastle last weekend with ligament damage in his foot.

Manager Marco Silva hopes the injury to his star striker is not serious, but admits he faces a race against time to be fit for his side's clash at the London Stadium.
