Newcastle United will have to cope without Kieran Trippier for several weeks due to a hamstring injury, ahead of their clash with Brighton. Trippier, a key figure in Eddie Howe’s squad, has been praised for his leadership and all-around play. His absence is a significant blow to the Magpies, especially considering his vast experience and the vital role he plays in both defense and attack.
Tino Livramento, seen as Trippier’s long-term successor, now has a great opportunity to step up and make a mark during Trippier’s absence. The 21-year-old has already shown promise, starting three league games this season, and could strengthen his case for more regular first-team action in the coming weeks.
Additionally, Newcastle will monitor Callum Wilson’s fitness “day by day” and are assessing other players ahead of the Brighton match.
