One more. In recent weeks, there has been a massacre in Newcastle. And it continues. Released at half-time against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League (2-0), Callum Wilson is preparing to join an already full infirmary. The Athletic reports that the English striker has a hamstring injury and is expected to miss between 4 to 6 weeks of competition, in addition to having to leave the Three Lions prematurely for this international break. Terrible news for Gareth Southgate, but especially for Eddie Howe, as the Magpies have a busy schedule ahead.
The next meeting is none other than Chelsea, on November 25. Then, it will be Paris Saint-Germain in C1 (28/11) and Manchester United in the Premier League (2/12), not to mention that the Magpies will also face Tottenham, the Blues again, and AC Milan. An XXL program, without Callum Wilson, knowing that at the moment, Murphy, Burn, Anderson, Botman, Barnes, Manquillo and Targett are injured. Alexander Isak is back soon. Not Sandro Tonali, suspended. It’s grayer than ever in Newcastle…
