Newcastle United midfielder Jack Colback will be sidelined for up to six weeks with a knee injury
Newcastle United midfielder Jack Colback will be sidelined for up to six weeks with a knee injury, following further scans and assessment on Thursday. The injury is not as bad as first feared.
The 26-year-old was injured early in the second half of Sunday's Tyne-Wear derby clash with Sunderland at the Stadium of Light and was replaced by Vurnon Anita.
Colback has started nine of United's ten Barclays Premier League games this season, taking his appearance tally to 48 in all competitions since arriving from the Black Cats in June 2014.
