GAMEWEEK 2 TEAM NEWS: INJURY UPDATES FROM FRIDAY
FRIDAY’S PRESS CONFERENCE TIMES
NEWCASTLE UNITED
Newcastle look set to add Lewis Hall to their ranks after Eddie Howe all but confirmed the Chelsea youngster was on his way.
Howe tends to be tight-lipped when asked about transfer activity but the fact that he was willing to talk about Hall suggests a move is imminent.
“What can I say? Let’s see and what happens today. He is a player that I like. Very versatile. Really good potential.
“Yes, I think it is [a loan deal].” – Eddie Howe
Injury-wise, Howe said he wasn’t expecting any of his sidelined players back for the trip to Manchester City. Nor were there any fresh issues reported.
Javier Manquillo (groin), Joe Willock (hamstring) and Emil Krafth (knee) remain unavailable, then.
