Callum Wilson could run out of games in his bid to be fit again this season.
But England star Kieran Trippier is poised to step up his comeback form injury as soon as next week for Newcastle United. Newcastle striker Wilson is being nursed back to full fitness after suffering a bad tear in his calf and achilles in December.
He is back out on the grass running but boss Eddie Howe has admitted caution is needed as he increases his workload and tries to avoid breaking down. Howe is hoping Trippier will be back in full training and in contention to play next weekend after a scan this weekend on his broken foot which is believed to have healed well.
