Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has confirmed a new injury setback for Joe Willock.
The midfielder is battling to overcome an Achilles injury.
Howe delivered an update after defeat at Brighton on Saturday.
Asked about Willock's comeback date, he said: "No unfortunately not.
"Joe's had a bit of a setback with an Achilles injury. It's not related to his hamstring problem so I think he'll be missing for around six weeks."
