Eddie Howe has said Newcastle United must reflect on Jonjo Shelvey's injury woe before making any big decisions on their transfer plans.
The former Liverpool player was injured after the Rayo Vallecano friendly and ruled out for up to "six to eight weeks" according to the Toon boss. It leaves Newcastle light on midfielders and were they to suffer any further blows in the midfield engine room, Howe would have a tricky situation on his hands.
When asked on his transfer plans after the Shelvey injury, Howe said: "That is something we are reflecting on and analysing on a daily basis. We will have a look at it, it's a forever changing thing day to day. I don't think it has forced any immediate decision."
