Some Newcastle United fans have been reacting to an update on Paul Dummett.
The Chronicle have reported that the injured defender is hoping to be back fit again next month.
Dummett is yet to play this term, after picking up a calf injury in pre-season.
He had initially been on course to return to action back in September.
But the 30-year-old suffered a setback in his recovery.
In his absence, Newcastle have been leaking goals left, right and centre.
Currently, no team has conceded more in the Premier League than the Magpies, who are level with Norwich City (27).
The Chronicle say Dummett is eager to overcome his injury and impress new boss Eddie Howe. Supposedly, he is now only a few weeks away.
He’ll be hoping to come in and make an impact during what will be a very hectic period.
