Newcastle United: Always keen to keep the local press on their toes by getting his media duties out of the way early, Howe is conducting his press conference ahead of Newcastle’s match against Manchester City tomorrow and has revealed that Joelinton will be sidelined for at least six weeks, further adding to the club’s well documented injury woes.
“He’s got a problem with a tendon in his quad, without getting too detailed,” said Howe. “It’s a very difficult place to get an injury, hence the timescale that he’s going to be out. He’s very disappointed; he wants to play and he wants to do well so we’ve had to do a job of trying to pick Joe up, really.”
