Eddie Howe Confirms Goalkeeper Injury
Newcastle United’s first-choice goalkeeper, Nick Pope, has suffered a dislocated shoulder, according to the team’s manager Eddie Howe. The incident occurred during a recent match, leaving the England international in a concerning condition.
Howe described the injury as a situation where “His shoulder has come out of his joint,” indicating the severity of Pope’s condition. The Newcastle boss expressed a grim outlook, stating, “it doesn’t look good for him,” which suggests a potentially lengthy absence from the pitch for the goalkeeper.
