Newcastle United and Swedish striker Alexander Isak might miss his club's league encounter against league champions Manchester City tomorrow.
The Newcastle United coach Eddie Howe has mentioned in press conference interview that Isak has a broken toe and not sure if the Swedish striker will be available for tomorrow's encounter.
As reported by BBC Sports today, Eddie Howe said when asked for an update on Isak:
"He'll be a doubt for tomorrow. He's had scans, he's had lots of tests. The injury has been diagnosed fine, there's no issues there.
"It sounds worse than it is, but he's got a broken toe, but it's one that can be managed and played with providing he can tolerate the pain levels, and that will have no long-term risks.
"He had an injection to numb the toe last week and that was fine until the injection wore off. Let's see how he is today."
"He trained last week before the Fulham game on the Friday and he had an injection in his toe to play. He felt fine, but then he started to feel his toe in the last five to 10 minutes of that game," Howe added.
"Then after the game it stiffened up and it wasn't in a great place early in the week, so he hasn't trained yet, so we'll have to make a decision again as to whether he trains today or he misses the game."
