Massadio Haïdara to Miss Remainder of Season with Knee Injury
Newcastle United left-back Massadio Haïdara has been dealt a significant blow, as it has been confirmed that he will miss the rest of the season due to a knee injury. The 22-year-old, who has made 15 Premier League appearances this season, sustained the injury during the team’s 1-0 victory over Aston Villa on February 28.
Since joining Newcastle from Nancy in January 2013, Haïdara has established himself as a key player in the Magpies’ defense. However, this setback will put a halt to his progress as he will now require surgery to repair the damaged knee.
Haïdara’s absence will be a major blow for both the club and the player, who had been showing promising form. His injury means that he will be sidelined for the remaining matches of the current campaign, and his focus will now turn to recovery as he aims to return to full fitness ahead of the next season.
