Isak's Injury Not Long-term But Newcastle Not Willing To Take Risks: Eddie Howe

By IANS News February 28, 2025 • 16:22 PM View: 435

Eddie Howe: Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe said he won't take any risks with Alexander Isak's fitness - but "if he's fit, he'll play" in the Magpies' FA Cup fifth round clash with Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday.

Newcastle will welcome Fabian Hurzeler's side to St. James' Park with a place in the quarter-finals up for grabs. Isak missed Wednesday night's 2-0 Premier League defeat at Liverpool with a slight groin problem, which head coach Howe says is not a long-term issue.

But he wouldn't be drawn on whether or not the Swedish international would be ready to return to action against the Seagulls as United bid to make sure of their place in the last eight of the game's most famous domestic cup competition.
