Football News Update: Newcastle Midfielder Lewis Miley Sidelined with Broken Metatarsal
In a setback for Newcastle United, 18-year-old midfielder Lewis Miley is expected to miss the team’s pre-season training due to a broken metatarsal. Miley, who made a significant impact last season, playing 17 matches in the Premier League, is anticipated to be out of action for around 12 weeks.
The injury comes as a blow to Newcastle, as Miley had also suffered a back issue towards the end of the 2023-24 campaign. This means the talented young player is likely to miss the beginning of the upcoming league season, including Newcastle’s first match at home against Southampton on August 17th, just under seven weeks away.
Miley’s absence will see him miss out on Newcastle’s pre-season preparations, including their scheduled tour of Japan in July. The midfielder had also featured in three of the club’s Champions League games last season, scoring once in the Premier League.
This setback is sure to be a disappointment for Miley and the Newcastle management, as the team looks to build on their promising performance in the previous campaign. Fans and experts will be closely monitoring Miley’s recovery process and his anticipated return to the pitch.
