He suffered the injury in the second half at St James’ Park and, following concussion protocol, was substituted in the 55th minute.

Earlier in the week Newcastle were beaten 7-2 by Barcelona in the Champions League, before the derby defeat to Sunderland.

He faces a spell out, but is expected to be available again in the closing weeks of the season.
