Bruno Guimaraes anger & Alexander Isak heartbreak as Newcastle United international stars return - photos

Newcastle’s seven players on international duty now return to the club ahead of Saturday’s match against Crystal Palace at St James’ Park (3pm kick-off).

It has been an eventful international break for The Magpies players, some for the wrong reasons as Alexander Isak was forced to withdraw from the Sweden squad due to injury before a terrorist incident saw Sweden’s match at Belgium abandoned at half-time. Sandro Tonali withdrew from the Italy squad following an investigation probe into alleged illegal betting.

If found guilty, the Newcastle midfielder could be facing a lengthy ban.

On a more positive note, Newcastle full-back Kieran Trippier helped England secure Euro 2024 qualification with a win over Italy.

Meanwhile in South America, it was a disappointing intrernational break for Bruno Guimaraes and Brazil while Miguel Almiron experienced mixed fortunes with Paraguay.

Fabian Schar was in action for Switzerland over the weekend while Martin Dubravka played twice for Slovakia.

Summer signings Tino Livramento and Lewis Hall both represented England at Under-21s and Under-20s level respectively while a number of Newcastle academy players were also called-up by their national teams at youth level.
