Yasleh announces Elanga injury: could be out for a long time

Newcastle United manager Matthias Jørgensen has revealed that winger Anthony Elanga has suffered an injury, confirming that the player may be sidelined for a long period, in another blow for the team.

Yaesle said: "The player is injured and may be out for a long time, we hope it is not so," without revealing the nature of the injury or the specific time Elanga will need to recover and return to the pitch.

Anthony Elanga missed Newcastle's squad for the match against Leeds United today, having been a key presence in the team's start under Eddie Howe, with reports praising his strong performances since the beginning of the season.

Newcastle are awaiting the results of medical tests to determine the severity of Elanga's injury and the exact length of his absence, while Yaisle hopes the player's absence will not be prolonged, especially with the importance of the upcoming stage and the multiple competitions the team is involved in.
