The NUFC team boss though admitting he won’t have one player to call on, with Callum Wilson set to still be missing for these next three matches, two against Chelsea and Arsenal a week on Saturday.

Official Newcastle United injury update from Eddie Howe on Callum Wilson:

“Callum has felt a tightness in his body.

“He hasn’t felt like he could kick on.

“With Callum, we are hypersensitive to any reaction.

“There is no injury as such.

“He is just not ready to come back”

A week ago, Eddie Howe had this to say about Callum Wilson ahead of the Brighton match:

“Callum has trained, but we will continue to assess it day-by-day.

“We need to make sure it is the right time when we re-enter him into the group.

“When we get him back, we want to get him back for a long time, so it is important we make the right call.”
