Newcastle United faces a setback as Hatem Ben Arfa will be sidelined for three to four weeks due to a hamstring injury. The injury has been troubling him for nearly a month, and the decision to keep him out aims to prevent a potential tear. Ben Arfa initially suffered the injury on November 22 in a Europa League match against Maritimo Funchal. After returning to play on December 10 against Fulham, he experienced a relapse. In addition to Ben Arfa, Newcastle will also be without Yohan Cabaye, who is expected to return in February.
