It’s been a slow start to the season for the Swedish striker, but he’s undoubtedly been a key player for Eddie Howe in the last few years. Injuries have slightly hampered his progress, and he’s set for another spell on the treatment table.
The supporters at St James’ Park will be desperately hoping that the former Borussia Dortmund man isn’t ruled out for too long, but it’s a disappointing blow for the Magpies nonetheless.
Isak Suffers Toe Injury for Newcastle
He’s a doubt for Fulham
As per MailOnline, Isak has suffered a toe injury and is now a doubt to face Fulham in the Premier League on Saturday. The Swedish striker was forced off against Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out with an eye complaint, but he’s now suffered a fresh injury problem.
Isak, described as ‘outstanding’, is Howe’s main centre-forward, especially with Callum Wilson also unavailable at the moment due to his own fitness problems. The North East club did recruit another striker during the summer transfer window – William Osula – but the young forward has a lack of Premier League experience.
