KEVIN Keegan hopes to welcome back Obafemi Martins and Charles N'Zogbia for tomorrow's game against Valencia.
Martins has not featured since returning to his native Nigeria last month after the tragic death of his mother.
But he was back in time to travel to Palma with his Newcastle United team-mates last week, and should be available for the St James's Park friendly.
However, the striker had to sit out training over the weekend after having an injection in his knee.
N'Zogbia missed the midweek warm-up game against PSV Eindhoven after taking a knock in the Mallorca Summer Cup fixture against Real Mallorca, but the midfielder should be OK to face the La Liga side.
Keegan told the Gazette: "Charles just got a slight bang in that last game, and I fetched him off, but he'll be fine for Saturday.
"This was just too early for him. He did some light training yesterday, and he'll be back in training today."
