Long-term absentees Kieran Trippier and Callum Wilson were pictured in full training ahead of their anticipated Newcastle United return. Both players have been sidelined in recent months, with the latter not featuring since the 1-1 draw against Manchester United in December.
Trippier broke his metatarsal in the 1-0 win against Aston Villa in February and was always expected to return before the end of the campaign. Eddie Howe hinted at a possible comeback for the defender following last weekend’s 1-0 defeat to Liverpool.
He said: “We’ll see how his training week progresses. Yes, that training session was yesterday (Friday), so he was never going to be in contention to play (against Liverpool). We’ll see how he progresses during the week.”
