newspaper Latest news

  • Facing spell on sidelines

    Joelinton (muscle) is set to miss Saturday's Premier League clash against Fulham after suffering another injury, with Newcastle still assessing the severity of the issue, according to coach Matthias Jaissle. "Joey went out with an injury again, we need to make the final treatment plan for him and see how long he will be out."

  • Questionable to face Fulham

    Joelinton is questionable to face Fulham due to a muscle injury, according to manager Matthias Jaissle, per Craig Hope of The Daily Mail. "Joelinton has a muscle issue (possibly cramp) and may miss Fulham."

  • Makes third straight start

    Joelinton recorded two shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 1-0 loss against Everton.

  • Wins two tackles

    Joelinton registered two shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-0 victory versus Crystal Palace.

  • Could start against Aston Villa

    Joelinton (thigh) could return to the starting lineup for Saturday's Premier League clash against Aston Villa, according to coach Matthias Jaissle. "We need to manage it really carefully. We missed them so much. Joe has had more training compared to Dan and the next steps for both of them is to give them more game time. For Dan it will most likely be too soon to get that starting position already as he's just trained a couple of times but for Joelinton it could be a bit different."
