"It's getting there now. I got a knock to my leg and it's caused some muscle damage. It's been very frustrating but hopefully I am back out there soon and doing what I love."
"Miley had impressed both in midfield and, arguably more pertinently, as a makeshift right-back in the absence of Tino Livramento. Livramento is nearing a return from a hamstring injury but the unavailability of both him and Miley has placed a significant strain on 35-year-old Kieran Trippier on right side of a defence that has proved vulnerable for much of the campaign."
Lewis Miley, Newcastle's 19-year-old midfielder, suffered a dead leg injury during the January 28 match against Paris Saint-Germain that caused unexpected muscle damage. His absence has significantly impacted Newcastle's defense, forcing 35-year-old Kieran Trippier to shoulder increased responsibility on the right side while fellow defender Tino Livramento recovers from a hamstring injury. Miley, who won the 2025 North East Football Writers' Association Young Men's Player of the Year award, expects to miss matches against Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, and the first Barcelona Champions League tie. He aims to return for Newcastle's second leg at Camp Nou against LaLiga champions Barcelona, hoping to help the team recover from their earlier 2-1 defeat.
