Newcastle injury news – Gareth Southgate shares Callum Wilson injury update
Yesterday, we reported that Callum Wilson was one of the two Newcastle players in the England squad for the November international break. While this is great news for the player and we are proud of his hard work which has resulted in the callup, we cannot deny that as fans, it’s nerve racking to see Wilson play two additional games. Particularly when you factor in how injury-prone he is.
According to Newcastle World, Gareth Southgate has shared the concern with selecting Callum Wilson himself. He has revealed that it remains a big doubt whether Wilson will be able to play the two games during the international break. I guess we will understand more about his injury when the lineup is revealed for tomorrow’s match. I haven’t put Wilson in my Newcastle predicted lineup vs Bournemouth.
Newcastle injury news – Matt Targett out for three months
There has been an important update regarding Matt Targett this week. On Tuesday, the injured left-back underwent surgery. It was needed for his recovery. According to a report from Shields Gazette, he is expected to be out for around three months, returning in February next year.
Newcastle injury news – Alexander Isak will be back after internationals
A big boost for Alexander Isak, as the Swedish striker nears his return to action. After being spotted back in training on grass, Shields Gazette reckon he’ll be back in the starting lineup for Newcastle after the international break, where they face Chelsea on the 25th of this month.
