Joelinton
29-Year-Old
Newcastle United
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Joelinton had a few fights with injury in the 2024/25 campaign, but he started 29 matches, 14 more than the prior campaign. His physical play leads to a lot of bumps and bruises, which often leads to an absence or two throughout the season. He's never had crazy attacking numbers despite coming to Newcastle as more of a forward, but as seen in his four goals and three assists last season, he's always around to find production from the left side. It seems doubtful he'll keep his fitness for an entire campaign with Champions League to worry about, but his versatility means he's a lock to start in most games when healthy, keeping his floor fairly solid.
Should be good after break
Joelinton suffered only a cut on his leg and isn't expected to be a doubt for a Nov. 22 clash with Manchester City, per Lee Ryder of The Chronicle.
ANALYSIS
Joelinton came off after a heavy challenge during a 3-1 loss to Brentford. He only suffered a cut and no serious injury, so there's no concern of a long-term absence. Joelinton should be back in the starting XI for a clash with Manchester City after the international break.
