According to manager Daniel Farke, "It would have been an amazing atmosphere for him to be back at Newcastle but I have to take decisions. He was out of team training for six weeks, just a few sessions with a smaller group. I had him at the Man Utd game for the spirit and wasn't going to bring him on the pitch."
