Newcastle United's striker Callum Wilson is set to miss the remainder of the season due to a pectoral muscle injury that requires surgery, sidelining him for up to 12 weeks. This injury puts his participation in Euro 2024 in doubt. Wilson's absence is a significant blow for Newcastle as they also deal with the uncertainty of Alexander Isak's fitness for the upcoming games. Manager Eddie Howe expressed hope that Wilson might play again before the season ends but confirmed that Wilson is currently undergoing surgery. The injury not only affects Newcastle's current campaign but also casts a shadow over Wilson's international aspirations with the Euro 2024 tournament on the horizon.
