United States men’s national team international Daryl Dike was carted off the pitch in tears on Saturday after suffering a foot injury during West Brom‘s trip to Ipswich in the Championship.
Dike, 23, has struggled with injuries since joining West Brom — he has played just four times in England’s second tier this season after tearing his Achilles in April 2023 — and played only 10 minutes from the substitute’s bench on Saturday before going down hurt.

Dike was visibly distraught as he left the pitch at Portman Road and was applauded by fans of both teams as the cart went down the tunnel.
He only returned from that Achilles injury in January, scoring his only goal of the season in the FA Cup third round against non-league Aldershot.
West Brom manager Carlos Corberan said the club would wait for scans before discussing the severity of Dike’s latest injury.
“The injury is to the left foot, the same place as his Achilles injury,” Corberan said after the game. “We don’t know if it is as serious as the previous injury.
