NEWCASTLE RECEIVE MIXED INJURY NEWS FROM EDDIE HOWE BEFORE BRIGHTON
Eddie Howe provides a positive Newcastle injury update. Joelinton is fit for Brighton, Lewis Hall's scan was encouraging, and Yoane Wissa is back on the grass. Bruno Guimaraes also returned safely.
Before Newcastle United's match against Brighton, Eddie Howe gave injury information on players, including Joelinton and Lewis Hall.
Newcastle United vs. Brighton at the Amex Stadium marks the Magpies' return to Premier League action following the international break.
Newcastle, who have not defeated the Seagulls away from home since February 2017, are expected to draw with them.
With Bruno Guimaraes and Joelinton travelling to and from Asia to represent Brazil over the international break, Eddie Howe does have some fitness issues going into the match. Howe has given updates on their availability before the Brighton match, and the travel will have taken its toll.
Bruno Guimaraes is healthy for Newcastle United's match against Brighton, according to Eddie Howe.
Lewis Miley, Joelinton, and Bruno Guimaraes
There were questions about the Magpies' midfield options because Lewis Miley had left the England Under-21 team, and Bruno and Joelinton were going to Asia. But Howe seems to have allayed those worries.
According to the Chronicle, he stated, "Everyone has returned safely."
"We had some concerns about Joelinton, but he appears to be doing well and should be able to train today."
Lewis Hall
Howe has now given a further update on Lewis Hall, the teenage left-back who missed Newcastle's victory over Forest due to a hamstring injury.
"The results of the second scan were encouraging," he stated.
He might be out on a variety of time scales, and this was the shortest one. Before the next international break, we hope he will return. It is fantastic news because that might not have been possible from the initial scan.
Yoane Wissa
Although Yoane Wissa has not yet been given his Newcastle United debut, Howe has given an encouraging update on his recuperation from a knee injury.
"Yoane's knee has responded nicely to that training, and we have seen him on the grass for the first time," he stated.
"We will progressively advance him, but deadlines have not changed."
Jacob Ramsey
After missing action since late August due to an ankle issue, Jacob Ramsey is back to full fitness.
He stated, "JJ had a few training sessions, but we did not want to push him too early."
"He appears to be doing well after a few more training sessions."
The summer acquisition is included in Geordie Boot Boys' projected Newcastle starting lineup for their match against Brighton; however, he has not played for the Magpies since the 0-0 draw with Leeds. After spending £43 million to join from Aston Villa, Ramsey has yet to prove his abilities to the Toon Army, so this might be a great opportunity for him.
Howe is anticipated to continue with the same back four that helped Newcastle defeat Union Saint-Gilloise and Nottingham Forest back-to-back while keeping a clean sheet, as Lewis Hall is injured.
EDDIE HOWE SHUTS DOWN SANDRO TONALI ARSENAL LINKS AS NEWCASTLE STAY FIRM
Eddie Howe speaks out on Sandro Tonali's future at Newcastle United following intense transfer links with Arsenal this window.
Sandro Tonali looks happy at Newcastle, no matter what the transfer deadline rumours tried to stir up. For a little while, talk of him heading to Arsenal got loud enough that Eddie Howe felt the need to step in and set things straight. Newcastle’s manager didn’t dance around it—Tonali’s settled, involved, and locked in. Sure, coaches can’t always kill off all the outside noise, but Howe wanted everyone to know where things stood.
After those stories started swirling, Howe went straight to Tonali for a chat. He gets how fast these things can spiral. Newcastle fans have seen enough drawn-out sagas to know what uncertainty feels like, and nobody wants to go through that again.
Someone asked Howe if he thought there was more behind the rumours. He shrugged it off: “I don’t think so. That would surprise me. But there’s always stuff happening I don’t know about. As far as I see it, we’ve got a top player and a great person on our hands.”
Tonali means more to Newcastle than just his price tag or contract. They brought him in for £55 million, and he’s signed on until 2029, with an extra year option. He’s a key part of their plans, both on the pitch and on the books. Naturally, that kind of player gets attention—especially since Europe isn’t exactly overflowing with elite midfielders.
But Howe really wanted to highlight the human side of it all. “Sandro’s very happy here. He gets on well with everyone, and you can see he’s in a good place. I honestly don’t see a problem. Of course, I can’t control everything. If I knew where all these rumours came from, I’d be smarter. But Sandro’s totally fine. We talked yesterday. He’s focused on what we’re doing right now.”
He wasn’t done: “There’s no issue with Sandro. He’s happy and committed. But let’s be real—our best players are always going to turn heads elsewhere. That’s just football.”
As for the transfer window, Premier League spending rules kept Newcastle’s hands tied. Howe didn’t sugarcoat it: “Financially it wasn’t possible. We’re under restrictions and had hardly any money to use this window, so we’ll wait for the summer when the market opens up and maybe we’ll get better value.”
He admitted the squad’s still a bit lopsided, especially at the back, but he’s convinced that a healthy squad changes things.
For now, Newcastle’s just focused on the essentials. Keeping Tonali happy and at the heart of things matters way more than the latest gossip. His happiness is reassuring for the moment, but as Howe pointed out, nobody really gets to control everything in football these days.
EDDIE HOWE CONFIRMS BRUNO GUIMARAES AND LEWIS MILEY OUT VS CITY
Newcastle face a midfield crisis as Bruno and Miley are ruled out of the Carabao Cup semi-final at Manchester City. Get updates.
Eddie Howe has given the latest on Lewis Miley, Bruno Guimaraes, and Sven Botman as Newcastle United get ready for Wednesday’s Carabao Cup semi-final at Manchester City.
It’s another tough night ahead for Newcastle. They’re already two goals down after losing the first leg at St James’ Park, and now they’re missing even more key players. That third Carabao Cup final in four seasons is starting to look like a big ask.
Honestly, the stats aren’t great. Newcastle haven’t scored—let alone won—at Man City since Howe took charge. Their only win at the Etihad came way back in 2014, when Rolando Aarons and Moussa Sissoko got the goals in a 2-0 victory. Seems like a lifetime ago.
Injuries keep piling up. Tino Livramento, Joelinton, Fabian Schar, and Emil Krafth are all out. Bruno Guimaraes sat out the 4-1 loss at Liverpool with an ankle problem, and both Lewis Miley and Sven Botman stayed on the bench as unused subs.
After that Liverpool game, Howe explained the situation. “Sven had a tight thigh, and the advice was not to use him. That’s why he and Lewy were on the bench—we wanted to give them every chance to be fit. Sometimes, you hope something changes in the warm-up, but with such a quick turnaround, you just don’t have time to get all the info you need,” he said.
“With Lewy, he just couldn’t bend his knee enough to be fit.”
Asked about the chances of players returning against Manchester City, Howe said, “Probably our best bets are Sven and Lewy since they were on the bench at Liverpool. For Bruno, I’m not sure—there’s a chance, but the others are definitely out.”
But just before the City game, Howe gave another update. Turns out, both Bruno and Miley are out for this one. “Yeah, Bruno’s doing well, but I don’t think he’ll make this game—maybe the weekend. Sven Botman is okay, but I’m not sure about Lewy either.”
