Newcastle United manager hopeful Davide Santon will be available next weekend

Newcastle United manager Alan Pardew is hopeful that new left-back signing Davide Santon will be available for next weekend after missing out on the Aston Villa match with a knee injury.

At first Pardew had feared that his young defensice signing would be out for a month however the Newcastle manager believes he could be in action by the end of the week.

“Davide has had fluid taken from his knee. Fingers crossed that will be OK. Maybe he will be available for next weekend. If that doesn’t cure the problem, he could need an operation where they will tidy it up. But it is not cartilage, so that’s good.”
