Newcastle United have received a timely boost ahead of next weekend's trip to Bournemouth.

The Magpies are hoping to get back to winning ways in the Premier League.

Their draw with West Ham United was a blip in an otherwise outstanding season for Eddie Howe's team.

They may even be able to call on summer signing Alexander Isak against the Cherries.

Speaking to reporters, manager Eddie Howe said: "Unfortunately, we had to follow concussion protocols with him, so immediately after the (Southampton) game we knew we would be without him today. It was a big blow for us because he's looked so good when he's come on to the pitch in recent weeks.

"He feels good, he feels fine, and I don't think there's any issues with him. I'm sure he'll be fine for next weekend."
