Opens scoring Joelinton scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-0 win against Southampton.

Impact Joelinton scored the team's first goal of the season, which ended up being the game winner Saturday. He is looking for a redemption year, following issues with injury and form. When healthy, the midfielder is able to produce, having scored a goal with two assists in 20 appearances in 2023/24, averaging about 2.7 tackles per 90 minutes played.

Decent in injury riddled campaign Joelinton scored two goals and recorded one assist in 20 appearances (15 starts) this past season.

Impact Joelinton saw a dip in production during the 2023-24 campaign, but he missed nearly half the season with various injuries, most notably a thigh injury that required surgery which kept him out for nearly four full months. All of his goal contributions came against big clubs, with his three Premier League goal contributions coming against Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham, and his lone Champions League goal coming versus AC Milan. He will look for a healthier campaign next season, but his consistent place in the starting XI could be in jeopardy with Sandro Tonali returning after serving his 10-month ban.

Gets 13 minutes in return Joelinton registered one chance created and four tackles in 13 minutes of play during Saturday's 4-1 win against Brentford.

Impact Joelinton was back on the team sheet Saturday following his 14-game absence due to a thigh issue, earning a couple of minutes off the bench to test his legs. The Brazilian will now hope to get into the starting XI for the final few matches of the season, as he was a regular starter before his injury, gaining the start in 18 of his 21 appearances this campaign.

Back after lengthy absence Joelinton (thigh) is on the bench for Newcastle during Saturday's clash with Burnley.

Impact Joelinton returns for the first time since January after missing multiple weeks due to a thigh injury. The midfielder returns slightly ahead of schedule, but will likely need to be eased back into match action from the bench.

Back in training Joelinton (thigh) is training ahead of Saturday's trip to Burnley, according to manager Eddie Howe. "We've had Miggy and Joelinton return to training this week, their first steps b...

Impact Joelinton was originally set to miss the remainder of the season when he went down with a thigh injury. He's now back in training and seemingly in with a chance of returning. Still after a thigh surgery and four months on the sideline there's a good chance he isn't risked in a major role before the end of the season.

Newcastle midfielder Joelinton signs long-term contract extension

Newcastle midfielder Joelinton has signed a long-term contract extension with the club

APRIL 11 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Inks extension Joelinton has signed a new long-term contract with Newcastle to remain with the club for an additional four seasons.

Impact Joelinton will be extending his time at St. James' Park, as he has agreed to a new four-year contract with the club, now remaining with the team until 2028 after signing with them in 2019. He has made 179 appearances since joining the club, scoring 25 matches over that span. Unfortunately, he will most likely not return this season after undergoing surgery on his thigh in late January, ending his season with 23 appearances in all competitions while notching three goals and four assists. He has been a regular starter ever since joining the club and should continue in that role throughout his extension, especially with recent reports that fellow Brazilian midfielder Bruno Guimaraes might be on his way out.

Newcastle's Joelinton out until May after thigh surgery. Brazil midfielder back before Copa America

Newcastle could be without Joelinton for the rest of the season after the Brazil midfielder underwent surgery on a thigh injury

JANUARY 23 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Surgery confirmed Joelinton (thigh) will be out until May after undergoing surgery Tuesday, Newcastle announced.

Impact Joelinton's surgery seemed a sure thing and it's now been confirmed. The midfielder may have played his final match for the club as he is out of contract and done for the season. Lewis Miley could see more chances in the starting XI in the back half of the season with Joelinton sidelined, especially as Joe Willock (Achilles) also works on a major injury recovery.

Set for surgery Joelinton (thigh) is set for surgery in the coming week, Craig Hope of the Daily Mail reports.

Impact Joelinton will undergo season-ending surgery on a thigh injury he suffered against Sunderland. Joelinton has been one of the most important pieces of the Newcastle starting XI, and his ability both in the attack and midfield will be tough to replace. Lewis Miley has been good in limited chances but now could be asked to step into a full starting role as Joelinton heads to the sideline.

May require surgery Joelinton (quadriceps) may require surgery, ESPN Brazil reports.

Impact Joelinton could be forced to undergo surgery after suffering a quadriceps injury. The forward would still hope to return in February, but the fact that surgery is a possibility isn't a great sign. Lewis Miley should see more minutes the longer Joelinton is sidelined.

Set for six weeks out Joelinton (thigh) is set to miss six weeks, according to manager Eddie Howe. "It isn't good. It is an injury that will see him miss a minimum of six weeks. It is a real blow for us...

Impact Joelinton's first match on the sideline will come against Manchester City on Saturday. Lewis Miley replaced Joelinton when he picked the injury up and should continue to see minutes in the starting XI while Joelinton recovers. That said it will be tough to trust Miley against the reigning champions Manchester City.

Forced off in second half Joelinton was forced off in the second half of Saturday's FA Cup match against Sunderland with a knock.

Impact Joelinton suffered the injury in the first half and was only able to give two minutes following halftime before being replaced by Lewis Miley. The move could be precautionary as Newcastle scored their second goal moments prior to the substitution, but the full extent of Joelinton's issue should be revealed following the match.

Plays 19 minutes against Nottingham Joelinton recorded 19 minutes of play against Nottingham Forrest on Tuesday and will look to remain fit moving forward, according to manager Eddie Howe. "Joe came on and made a lit...

Impact Joleinton played 19 minutes off the bench against Nottingham, returning to play after encountering an injury against Fulham just two matches ago. The club will hope for the Brazilian to stay healthy moving forward, as he continues to be one of their best options in the midfield, being able to lead the team on both fronts of the field. He will look to return to a starting position soon, as he only has been left out of the starting XI twice when available.

Substitute option versus Nottingham Forest Joelinton (hamstring) is on the bench for Tuesday's clash with Nottingham Forest.

Impact Joelinton is good to go after missing the previous game but will begin as a sub. He has scored twice and added nine shots (five on target), 11 chances created, and one accurate cross in his last five appearances.

Out with hamstring injury Joelinton (hamstring) is not in Newcastle's squad to face Luton Town on Saturday.

Impact Joelinton misses out on Saturday's match after suffering the injury in the Carbao Cup loss to Chelsea. The midfielder's injury was deemed nothing too serious, so he could return in time for a Boxing Day clash with Nottingham Forest.

Impact Joelinton, at this point, should probably be considered an option for the weekend, with manager Eddie Howe confirming it was nothing "too serious." If the Brazilian is an option against Luton, he could realistically end up on either the bench or in the starting XI, as he is a regular starter, but the club may not want to push the midfielder in a match that shouldn't put too much strain on the Magpies. If he does not make the starting XI, expect Lewis Miley to capture the start in the midfield, with Joelinton possibly getting some time off the bench.

Injures hamstring in win Joelinton suffered a hamstring injury during Saturday's 3-0 win over Fulham, according to manager Eddie Howe per the Chronicle Live. "Joey's possibly might be a hamstring".

Impact Joelinton had been on good form of late, recording three goals on 12 shots (six on target), 14 tackles and 11 chances created in the last seven matches. If the midfielder needs to sit out, then Lewis Miley could be an option to get the start in the midfield for Newcastle.
