Eddie Howe says Newcastle United will offer Jonjo Shelvey all the support he needs after he suffered a major injury blow over the festive period.
The midfielder could be missing for up to two months with a calf injury after the issue compounded what has already been a tough campaign for the Newcastle star. Howe confirmed the blow in between the games against Leicester and Leeds over the festive programme.
He said: "It looks like six to eight weeks, unfortunately. I think he felt something in the game against Vallecano. We hoped it wasn’t serious. He resumed training, and felt OK.
