Jamal Lewis can take hope from Joelinton’s turnaround in status at Newcastle United in the fight for his own future at the club. The Northern Irish international faces a big summer after a testing 21 months on Tyneside.
The left-back joined from Norwich City in September 2020 but has so far failed to hit the heights of his debut Premier League season with the Canaries. A mixture of poor form and injuries has left a question mark over his Toon future.
Having suffered an injury in the first few weeks of Eddie Howe’s reign, the 24-year-old required surgery and was then left out of the Premier League squad come to the turn of the year. Yet despite his poor start to life at Newcastle, there is hope that Howe can improve Lewis in the same way he did with Joelinton and Emil Krafth.
