Newcastle United striker Callum Wilson will undergo a scan after coming off against Manchester City during the 3-3 draw.
The Magpies star has netted two goals in three Premier League games so far this season and is certain to be rested against Tranmere Rovers for the League Cup second round clash at Prenton Park. Eddie Howe is hoping that the scan does not deliver disappointing news.
He said today: "He's OK, the normal process is he goes for a scan and we wait for the results, we hope it's not too serious."
Fraser missed the draw at Brighton and did not come off the bench against Man City. Howe said: "The situation with Ryan Fraser is the same, a scan and we wait for the results, we hope it's not too serious."
Howe was also asked about Matt Targett's fitness, after the full-back missed two matches due to a hamstring, and said: "Matt is doing well. He was close against Man City but we didn't want to take that risk when he hadn't had a big training day in 14 days. We felt it was probably too big a risk to start him but he's very close to being fit."
