Newcastle United rocked by training ground injury as club captain expected to miss rest of season

Newcastle United club captain Jamaal Lascelles has been rocked by an unfortunate injury picked up at the club's training ground.

The skipper was not named in the squad for the 3-1 win over Southampton and a testing season for the long serving centre-back looks like it's come to an early end. Lascelles has started just two matches for Newcastle this term during defeats at Liverpool and Man City.
