Newcastle United injury list: Miguel Almiron return date as Nick Pope set to miss two games - gallery

Here is Newcastle United’s current injury list and estimated return dates heading into the international break.

Newcastle have several players away on international duty including Kieran Trippier (England), Sven Botman (Netherlands), Martin Dubravka (Slovakia) and Jamal Lewis (Northern Ireland). Miguel Almiron (Paraguay) and Fabian Schar (Switzerland) missed out on their respective national squads due to injury while Nick Pope (England) withdrew after being named in the squad.

Pope will miss the upcoming England matches against Italy and Ukraine before returning to action for Newcastle next month.

The Magpies flew to Dubai following Friday’s 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest. The players have been given a short break ahead of the warm-weather training camp in the United Arab Emirates.

Several players who have been out injured have made the journey over as Eddie Howe looks to prepare his squad for the final 12 matches of the season. United currently sit fifth in the table but are just two points behind Tottenham Hotspur in fourth with two games in hand and superior goal difference.

And Howe is set to welcome some big players back for the return to Premier League action on April 2 against fellow Champions League chasers Manchester United (4:30pm kick-off).
