Eddie Howe has given a critical update on Yoane Wissa’s fitness before Newcastle United’s match against Burnley.
Howe confirmed Wissa “looked good” after playing 30 minutes in an 11 v 11 game, but the decision rests on his readiness “to make a difference” after further training.
A return for the £55 million striker would significantly bolster Newcastle’s squad, particularly given their demanding schedule.
Supporters and teammates eagerly await Wissa’s potential debut at St James’ Park, hoping his experience and quality can provide a much-needed lift.
