It will be almost a month on the sidelines for Newcastle United star for Joelinton after he picked up a two-game suspension during the defeat to Manchester City. The Brazilian picked up his 10th yellow card of the season at the Etihad Stadium meaning he will now miss important clashes with Wolves and Nottingham Forest.
Joelinton's yellow card arguably could not have come at a worse time for the Magpies as Eddie Howe tries to get his side back on track. The upcoming Premier League fixtures are must-win for Newcastle as they seek to keep their European push on course.
However, after Joelinton sits out the upcoming top flight clashes, he will then have to sit through an international break and won't return until the April 2 showdown with Manchester United.
