KIERON Dyer may have made his final appearance in a West Ham shirt after he limped off 20 minutes into a reserve match.

The midfielder had been recalled from his loan spell at Ipswich Town in the hope that he could play a role in the club's battle against the drop, which has five games to run.

However, he hobbled off against Bolton's reserves on Tuesday, prompting suggestions that he will not play for West Ham again, as his contract expires in June.

Ipswich boss Paul Jewell is understood to be keen to take Dyer back to Portman Road on a free transfer.
