Newcastle United's Joelinton ruled out of 2023-24 season due to groin injury

Joelinton got injured against Sunderland in the FA Cup

Joelinton, a midfield player for Newcastle United, is expected to miss the rest of the campaign because of a groin injury. It’s an international from Brazil.

Joelinton should be sidelined for approximately six weeks following his injury, which he suffered during the 3-0 victory over Sunderland on January 6.

However, according to a source, additional evaluations indicate that surgery might be necessary to prevent the damage from happening again, which would keep him out for several months.

According to a source, the Brazil international will have more testing with a specialist and is eager to avoid surgery.

This season, Joelinton has made 23 appearances, tallying three goals and dishing out four assists. On the injury, Eddie Howe said: “He’s a huge player for us, it’s a big blow.

“He’s got a problem with the tendon in his quad. It’s a very difficult place to get an injury, hence the timeframe. “He’s very disappointed. We’ve had to do a job of picking Joe up.

“We’re really stretched in attacking and midfield areas, we have been for a long time and it’s inhibited our ability to rest players and change within games.”

Newcastle, who have been greatly impacted by injuries this season, will find the news to be depressing.

Newcastle, who now sits tenth in the Premier League, was eliminated from the Champions League during the group stage after placing last in Group F.

This season, Joelinton has participated in 23 games and scored three goals. After burglars came into his residence, he has had a terrible week.

For a large portion of the season, Newcastle has struggled with injuries; Nick Pope, Matt Target, Javier Manquillo, Joe Willock, Elliot Anderson, and Harvey Barnes are all out.

Callum Wilson, Tino Livramento, and Jacob Murphy are all under consideration and are close to making a return.
