Newcastle United recall Matty Bondswell after baffling Shrewsbury Town loan

Newcastle United have recalled left-back Matty Bondswell after a baffling loan deal with Shrewsbury Town. The former Red Bull Leipzig was understood to have been fit and available throughout his loan but Steve Cotterill opted to overlook the promising 19-year-old.

The League One side are sitting in 15th place and even with the Shrews in comfortable winning positions, Cotterill did not take a look at Bondswell. The situation has resulted in Newcastle losing patience with the third tier side with Bondswell recalled.

Bondswell was named on the team sheet for tonight's game against West Bromwich Albion and thrown straight into the action. Bondswell will now look to contribute to Elliott Dickman's Premier League 2 play-off push.
