Brazil midfielder Bruno Guimarães is in for a lengthy layoff after suffering a hamstring injury in Newcastle United’s 2–1 win over Tottenham Hotspur.
Alarms bells sounded when the 28-year-old limped off the pitch in the closing stages on Tuesday evening, and Newcastle manager Eddie Howe was visibly worried in his postgame press conference when discussing the issue. After undergoing further tests, it seems the English boss was right to be concerned.
