Newcastle United have provided a crucial injury update on their star striker Alexander Isak before they go head-to-head with Leicester City on Monday night at the King Power Stadium.

Fittingly, the Sweden international marked a century of appearances with the goal that won Newcastle the Carabao Cup

Kieran Trippier, meanwhile, went off against the Bees with what appeared to be a groin issue, while Anthony Gordon has not yet returned to full training after suffering an injury while on England duty during the international break. "We'll wait and see today, I will see them [Trippier and Isak] for the first time today,” Howe said on Friday.
