Emmanuel Emenike has been included in the West Ham squad ahead of the Southampton clash and is expected to make his debut against the Saints.
The Nigerian international joined Fenerbahce on-loan last week but was unable to make his debut against Aston Villa as he had to sort out his paperwork according to club co-chairman David Gold.
