January 10, 2025
Pope (knee) has not yet been training with the team, but coach Eddie Howe stated in a press conference that the goalkeeper is not far from returning. "Nick is not far away. He hasn't trained with the group yet and has done goalkeeping training one-on-one. I think there is a bit longer needed before his knee is fully strong enough to play," he explained.
ANALYSIS
Pope sustained a knee injury in early December, interrupting what was shaping up to be his best start to the season since joining Newcastle in 2022. He had already made 54 saves and 30 clearances in 15 appearances, while helping his team secure three clean sheets. Martin Dubravka has been filling in as the goalkeeper during Pope's absence.
