Newcastle United defender Sven Botman has had surgery on a facial fracture after a collision with Sunderland forward Brian Brobbey in Sunday’s Tyne-Wear derby at St James’ Park.

On Monday, the club said in a statement that the operation was successful, he was withdrawn under concussion protocol in the second half, and he is not expected to be sidelined for long, with hopes of featuring again in the closing weeks.
