Newcastle lose key players as Yoane Wissa and Tino Livramento sidelined for two months
Trouble for the Magpies.
Newcastle coach Eddie Howe faces challenges ahead of the next match.
Details: Howe has announced that striker Yoane Wissa and defender Tino Livramento will be unavailable for about two months due to injuries.
Wissa has a knee injury that will keep him out longer than expected, with his recovery time now set at 8 weeks instead of the initial 4-5 weeks.
Livramento, the team’s right-back, is also expected to be sidelined for 8 weeks because of a ligament injury:
“This week, he visited a specialist after our scan results were better than anticipated. We originally thought he could be out for months, so it was a relief to find out it would only take weeks. It’s a ligament injury, but not to the anterior cruciate ligament. He has already received injections in his knee,” Howe said.
Wissa joined Newcastle this summer from Brentford for €58 million.
Livramento came from Southampton in 2023 for €37 million.
This Sunday, Newcastle will play against Nottingham Forest at St. James’ Park in round 7 of the Premier League.
Reminder: Setback for Newcastle. Tino Livramento to miss at least six weeks with injury.
