Picks up knee injury
M/DNewcastle United
OUT
May 12, 2023
Ritchie suffered a knee injury in training and will miss the rest of the season, according to manager Eddie Howe.
ANALYSIS
Ritchie has been relegated to a bit role this season and has made just seven league appearances for 35 minutes. Once an option at left-back, he's far down the depth chart for every position he can be considered for and appears on his way out, as his future at the club is unlikely to change. Soon to be 34 years old, his time in the Premier League may be over.
