West Ham United’s George Earthy is set to return to the club after a successful loan spell at Bristol City. The 20-year-old England Under-21 international has made significant progress, featuring in 39 league matches and scoring three goals.
Earthy’s loan spell has helped him develop as a player and build confidence. He credits the experience for teaching him mental toughness and resilience. “Coming here on loan has made me realise how resilient I am,” Earthy said. “It’s helped me grow as a person and a player.”
Earthy hopes to follow in the footsteps of fellow youngster Ollie Scarles and become a regular member of Graham Potter’s first team. “It would mean a lot to me to be a first-team regular at West Ham,” he said. Potter has already hinted that Earthy will be part of his pre-season plans, telling him to “keep doing what you’re doing” and get to work in pre-season.
With his talent and determination, Earthy is poised to make a strong impression at West Ham. His silky first touch and movement between the lines have drawn comparisons to David Silva, and he believes he has the potential to succeed in the Premier League. “The goal is to play and do well for the club I love,” Earthy said. “Let’s see what happens.”
