Alexander Isak’s Hip Injury Is Not ‘long-term’, Confirms Newcastle Manager Eddie Howe
St James Park: As he prepares his side to face table-toppers Liverpool in a Premier League clash on Wednesday, Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe says he doesn't think the knock Alexander Isak took at Crystal Palace is a ‘long-term injury'.
The Swedish frontman was withdrawn early on in the 1-1 draw at Selhurst Park on Saturday but with the Reds in town in midweek, head coach Howe is hopeful Isak will be fit enough to play a part.
"Alex took a knock to his hip. We haven't seen him in training yet, but we don't think it's a long-term injury. Dan (Burn) got through the game well. When he got suspended, we used that as an opportunity to look after his ankle and get himself fit. He was outstanding against Crystal Palace, and he came through the game okay,” said Howe in a press conference.
