Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe has confirmed that Harvey Barnes has suffered a foot injury that is likely to keep him out for months.
The former Leicester man, who moved to St James’ Park in the summer, was taken off just 12 minutes into the Magpies’ stunning 8-0 win against Sheffield United, and now the club’s worst fears have been realised.
Speaking to the press ahead of his side’s Carabao Cup tie with Manchester City tomorrow night, Howe said: “It’s an injury to his foot, just below the toe.
“We’re fearing it’s months rather than weeks. It’s a substantial injury. He’s been scanned and waiting on a specialist telling us if he needs surgery or not.”
Barnes’ replacement Anthony Gordon was one of the scorers in the Bramall Road victory.
