Defensive duo set for Newcastle United returns


DeAndre Yedlin’s pushing to make his Newcastle United comeback.
Right-back Yedlin has returned to training after recovering from the groin operation he underwent in May.
And left-back Achraf Lazaar – who has missed the club’s final three friendlies – is also close to a return ahead of Sunday’s Premier League season-opener against Arsenal.
Head coach Steve Bruce said: “All of them, hopefully, join in (this week). Hopefully, they’ll be OK.”
Meanwhile, midfielder Jack Colback has been sidelined with a groin problem.
