Newcastle have received a positive update on the injury front ahead of their match against Manchester United in the Carabao Cup final.

Callum Wilson and Joelinton are both expected to be present at Wembley on Sunday. Newcastle United may be missing two goalkeepers on Sunday for the Carabao Cup final, but they are in good condition in the rest of their squad, enhanced by injury news this week. The Magpies will confront Manchester United at Wembley on Sunday afternoon and will be without the banned Nick Pope and the cup-tied Martin Dubravka, coincidentally having played for the Red Devils in the initial half of the season while on loan. It will be an extraordinary return to fame for previous Liverpool 'keeper Loris Karius, who will make his debut for the club in north London. That is not perfect for manager Eddie Howe, but he will be joyful that the remainder of his first team squad is in great shape. According to The Telegraph, both Kieran Trippier and Joelinton have trained this week and will be accessible in spite of both going off during the second half of the defeat to Liverpool last weekend. Joe Willock is a 'hopeful' to be involved rather than affirmed, but Callum Wilson has trained without issue this week and will be available at Wembley. This only leaves long-term absentee Emil Krafth out with injury at the weekend as he carries on his recover from an ACL injury. Howe will also appreciate the return from suspension of key midfielder Bruno Guimaraes who was sent off in the semi-finals against Southampton and has missed three league games as a result. Newcastle are also in the advantageous position of not playing this week while Manchester United confront Barcelona in the second leg of their Europa League play-off tie on Thursday night. With the tie balanced at 2-2 from the first leg, Erik ten Hag will be fielding a strong team against the La Liga leaders, with the Carabao Cup final just three days later.
