Team news | Destiny 'out four to five weeks', latest on Danso

Thomas Frank reports that Destiny Udogie will be sidelined for up to five weeks with a hamstring injury.

The full-back picked up the issue early in the second half of our 2-0 loss against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Saturday, replaced by Souza, our most recent signing who went on to make an impressive debut.

Speaking at his pre-Newcastle press conference at Hotspur Way on Tuesday, Thomas said: "Unfortunately, Destiny has a hamstring injury and will be out for the next four to five weeks."

Meanwhile, Thomas had an update on Kevin Danso, the defender currently sidelined after snapping the ligament in his big toe in our 2-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League. "He met the consultant. It's going forward, but it's still weeks before he's available," he added.
