Newcastle United have been dealt a significant setback as their Brazilian attacker Joelinton is expected to be out of action for at least six weeks. The Premier League club’s manager, Eddie Howe, confirmed the news, stating that the player has sustained a tendon injury in his quadriceps.
Joelinton’s Injury Impact on Newcastle
The absence of Joelinton is a considerable loss for Newcastle, as the forward will be unavailable for selection during a critical period of the season. Howe expressed his disappointment, acknowledging the severity of the injury and its impact on the team.
The 26-year-old Brazilian has been an integral part of Newcastle’s attacking lineup, and his presence on the pitch will be missed. The club will now have to navigate the upcoming fixtures without one of their key players as they aim to maintain their position in the Premier League standings.
As Newcastle prepares for the challenges ahead, they will be hoping for a swift and complete recovery for Joelinton, whose contributions on the field have been vital for the team’s performance. The club and its supporters will be eager to see him return to full fitness and rejoin the squad as soon as possible.
