Yedlin – who had groin surgery late last season – has been added to Newcastle United’s squad for Sunday’s game against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

Head coach Steve Bruce said: “He has trained for the last two weeks. He has been out for five months. He’s available from this weekend.”

Yedlin had a setback on his return from surgery in August.
