Impact Ward-Prowse is playing with the U21 team of the Clarets on Friday since he is not available for Saturday's clash against his parent club West Ham United due to being loan locked.

Joins Burnley on loan Ward-Prowse completed a loan move from West Ham United to Burnley until the end of the season, his new club announced.

Impact Ward-Prowse has joined Burnley on loan until the end of the season to strengthen the midfield of coach Scott Parker. The midfielder has made over 400 Premier League appearances, earned 11 England caps, scored 17 direct free-kick goals in the competition, and previously featured for Southampton, West Ham, and Nottingham Forest.

Makes bench Saturday Ward-Prowse is named on the bench for Saturday's clash against Sunderland, the club posted.

Impact Ward-Prowse is in the match squad for the first time since late September and takes a bench spot for Saturday's clash against Sunderland. The midfielder had been reported as outside of the club's plans and was expected to see no playing time when coach Nuno Espirito Santo arrived at West Ham United, as he had already kept him out of the squad during his time at Forest when both were there. That said, the addition of Ward-Prowse provides another option in midfield with Lucas Paqueta (undisclosed) close to making a move away from the Hammers, but the Englishman's status remains uncertain.

Out of favor Ward-Prowse was dropped with no injury during Monday's draw with Everton. "Looking at the best options for the game, James is not involved."

Impact Ward-Prowse was out of favor with Nuno Espirito Santo at Nottingham Forest and that doesn't seem to have changed at West Ham. The midfielder isn't likely to be part of the squad moving forward. Ward-Prowse could be a loan option during the January window.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Dropped from squad Ward-Prowse (not injury related) was dropped from West Ham's squad for the trip to Everton, Jack Rosser reports.

Impact Ward-Prowse has found himself on the end of Nuno Espirito Santo's ire previously at Nottingham Forest and it seems the new Hammers coach hasn't changed his opinion. Ward-Prowse is unlikely to play moving forward and could be on his way out of West Ham. Guido Rodriguez and Mateus Fernandes could be set to partner in the center of the park.

SEPTEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Logs four accurate crosses Ward-Prowse registered one shot (zero on goal), eight crosses (four accurate) and five corners in Friday's 5-1 loss against Chelsea.

Impact For last season's Premier League's games, Ward-Prowse never logged more than three accurate crosses. The midfielder will try to prove that he is a consistently reliable option. During the previous season, Ward-Prowse was not, one of his worst campaigns to date.

Poor output offensively Ward-Prowse scored and assisted once in 15 appearances (12 starts) after making the switch to West Ham.

Impact Ward-Prowse made the switch to London from Nottingham Forest in the January transfer window, and failed to really improve. The hope was that he'd return to his 2023 numbers where he managed 14 goal contributions for the Hammers. Instead it was more of the same lackluster play he showed with Nottingham Forest. He was a nearly guaranteed starter, which could be a good sign for his role next season.

Whips in four crosses Ward-Prowse registered one shot and four crosses in Tuesday's 1-0 loss to Wolves.

Impact Ward-Prowse saw a decent match in his 77 minutes of play but was nothing special, with a shot and four crosses in the attack to go along with two tackles and in interception in the defense. He has started in his past five games since returning from an injury, seemingly seeing that spot immediately. He will hope to remain in this spot and gain another goal contribution soon, as he has yet to gain one in his seven appearances with West Ham.

Threatening from flank Ward-Prowse registered six crosses (two accurate) and five corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Everton.

Busy in the midfield Ward-Prowse registered three crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Thursday's 2-0 victory versus Leicester City.

Impact Ward-Prowse put forth a solid effort in the midfield Thursday. The 30-year-old was locked in defensively, winning two tackles, three duels, one aerial battle and recording two interceptions. Although he didn't get too many chances against the Foxes, his regular role in set-pieces provides ample opportunities for key passes and assists.

Solid effort in return to action Ward-Prowse recorded one shot (zero on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and seven corners in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Brentford.

Impact In what marked his first game back from playing on loan at Nottingham Forest to start the season, Ward-Prowse delivered a solid effort by tying his season-high with a total of seven crosses.

Recalled from loan Ward-Prowse has been recalled from his loan to Nottingham Forrest, the club announced.

Impact Ward-Prowse has spent the first half of the 2024/25 season on loan at Nottingham Forest but is now back at West Ham following a mutual agreement between the two clubs and the player. The 30-year-old England international made ten appearances during his time at the City Ground. Last season, he registered seven goals and eleven assists for West Ham and will provide experience, depth, and quality to Graham Potter's squad for the remainder of the campaign.

First assist of season Ward-Prowse assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Monday's 3-0 win versus Wolverhampton.

Impact Ward-Prowse made the most of a two-minute appearance Monday, assisting Nottingham Forest's second half, extra time goal in their 3-0 victory over Wolverhampton. The assist was the first of the season for Ward-Prowse who has seen his minutes dwindle since a four-start stretch from Sept. - Oct. Over Forest's last eight league fixtures, Ward-Prowse has gone as an unused sub on five occasions and did not log more than eight minutes during any of his three appearances.

JANUARY 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Fails to spark offense Ward-Prowse had five crosses and a corner but only created two chances in Nottingham Forest's 3-0 loss to Arsenal Saturday.

Impact Ward-Prowse went the full game, so he seems to be getting some playing time back. However, he was unable to jump-start Nottingham Forest's attack despite a decent amount of service. The entire team should have more success against an Ipswich Town side that has conceded 22 goals in 11 matches heading into Sunday's contest against Manchester United.

NOVEMBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Losing playing time Ward-Prowse has appeared in just two games and 80 total minutes since the beginning of October for Nottingham Forest.

Impact The central midfielder was a regular starter following the September international break, but he's rarely played since the beginning of October -- once due to suspension and once due to being loan-locked, but he's been on the bench in the other two matches since then. He's yet to score a goal or deliver an assist in 2024/25.
