Bruno Guimaraes has vowed to "be ready faster than ever" after suffering an ankle injury during Newcastle United's 1-0 win against Fulham on Sunday.
The midfielder, despite his best efforts to initally run off the injury, limped off at half-time after his ankle gave way during the win over the Cottagers. Guimaraes left St James' Park with a protective boot on as fears grew over a long-term spell on the sidelines.
The Brazilian has since undergone a scan to discover the full extent of his time away from the game and fans were relieved to hear that things were not as bad as first feared. Although the Magpies went on to win the match through an Alexander Isak header, the Toon Army are all too aware of the vital role that the Brazilian plays in their team.
