Joelinton's Injury Forces Newcastle to Reconsider Transfer Plans

Potential sale of stars Guimarães, Isak or Botman on the cards as club struggles to maintain Premier League position.

Newcastle United's midfielder Joelinton is likely to miss the rest of the season due to a groin injury, prompting the club to review its January transfer plans.
Joelinton's injury could lead to the reopening of negotiations with Manchester City for Kalvin Phillips, potentially leading to the sale of one of Newcastle's biggest stars - Guimarães, Isak or Botman - in the summer.
Newcastle's manager Eddie Howe has recalled defensive midfielder Isaac Hayden from a loan stint at Standard Liège, but would prefer to send him straight back out on loan to a Championship club.
Newcastle's team has lost six of their past seven Premier League games, slipping to 10th in the table, 11 points adrift of a top-four place.
Newcastle's player pool is valued at more than £700m ($885.8m), with Alexander Isak being the most valuable player in the squad, valued at £89.8m ($113.51m).
