Eddie Howe may have turned Newcastle’s fortunes around this season after taking over in November, but the transformation of Joelinton on Tyneside could be his biggest success yet.
The Magpies have won four of their last five games as part of a seven-match unbeaten run to lift themselves up to 14th in the Premier League and four points above the relegation zone.
And a big reason for that change in success has been the performances from striker-turned-midfielder Joelinton, who has been nothing short of tremendous since playing a role in the middle of the park.
