Impact Murphy opened the season with a shoulder issue, though it's unclear if the two are related.

Has another nice campaign as backup Murphy scored four goals, made two assists, had 29 shots, created 19 chances and sent in 53 crosses over 36 appearances (14 starts) this season.

Impact Murphy put up another campaign as a net-positive, performing very well when given the chance to play and even having a couple of stretches as part of the starting XI. One of EPL's most reliable backup attackers, Murphy is capable of filling in at either wing and, regardless of the reinforcements that will come during the summer, he should still find some regular playing time, especially with Newcastle now having a much busier schedule as they prepare for their Champions League return after two decades.

On bench Monday Murphy (groin) will be available as a substitute versus Leicester City on Monday.

Unlikely to face Leicester Murphy (groin) hasn't trained and is considered a doubt for Monday's match against Leicester City, according to manager Eddie Howe.

Impact Murphy still has a chance to feature, as Howe's quotes came after Thursday's match and there's still a few days between then and Monday. Given the injury to Joe Willock, someone else will have to come into the midfield and Murphy could be an option if he can improve in the days leading up to Monday's match.

Left out against Brighton Murphy (groin) will not be in the starting XI versus Brighton on Thursday.

Impact Murphy's groin continues to bother him and this update doesn't put him on the right side of the injury after sitting on the bench in Saturday's draw against Leeds. It's unlikely he'll start Thursday or even be available, which likely means another start for Miguel Almiron, who is looking to return to his form found earlier in the season.
