Another Newcastle star set to miss remainder of the season | OneFootball

Tino Livramento is expected to miss the rest of the season for Newcastle in another injury blow for Eddie Howe.

Newcastle had already confirmed that Lewis Miley was set to miss the remainder of the campaign after suffering a broken fibula in training.

And Newcastle boss Howe says he does not expect to see Livramento back in the remaining three games either.

“Tino is doing well,” he said. “He is improving, back running on the grass, but I don’t think he will be back this season. 

“We could maybe push him for the Fulham game but that would feel silly. We will let him recover and get a good summer behind him.”

Howe also says it is not yet known whether Fabian Schar can return this season.

“We’re not 100% sure. His situation was slightly unique. He was very close to returning to full fitness and got an infection,” Howe said. 

“He’s building up his strength and resilience again. He’s looking a lot more positive in his body at the moment.

“Whether or not he’s going to be fit enough to take to the pitch again between now and the end of the season, let’s wait and see.”
