Impact Lascelles is making good progress after returning from his long-term knee injury and being back in training, but the coach doesn't want to risk him and says that if there are no injuries in the final stretch of the season, it would be better for him to return during the pre-season for Newcastle.

Targeting January return Lascelles (knee) is targeting a return in January as he ramps up his recovery.

Tears ACL Lascelles has been confirmed to have picked up a torn ACL in Saturday's 4-3 win against West Ham United, the club announced Sunday.

Impact Lascelles' season is coming to an early end, as he has torn his ACL and is now set for surgery in the next week before undergoing a six to nine-month recovery period. This is a brutal loss for the club, as he was set to be the new starter in the middle of the defense after Sven Botman went down against Manchester City with an ACL injury as well, now leaving the backline limited with options. With that being said, Dan Burn will most likely move to the center of the defense to replace him, while Lewis Hall replaces Burn at left-back. Lascelles will now hope for a recovery with no setbacks, looking for a return next season, most likely coming anywhere between the end of October and the start of January.

Impact Lascelles came off in the 17th minute following a collision with Michail Antonio that left him hobbled.

On bench Saturday Lascelles (calf) is available from the bench during Saturday's match against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Lascelles missed out in the Cup at the weekend and is now confirmed to be hampered by a calf injury. The short turnaround to Tuesday's clash was always going to make it tough for Lascelles to get back. Sven Botman and Fabian Schar are both fit and should be the preferred pairing in central defense for Tuesday's clash.

Available on bench Lascelles (undisclosed) is on the bench for Monday's trip to Liverpool.

Impact Lascelles is available as an option off the bench Monday after recovering from a minor issue. The defender wasn't quite deemed fit to start, but still is an option if Sven Botman or Fabian Schar need to come off during Monday's clash.

Impact Lascelles will look to put his injury concerns behind him quickly, possibly being an option for their match against Liverpool. He picked up the issue in a contest against Luton Town, having gone down with an undisclosed injury that caused him to miss their last match against Nottingham. There is a chance he makes the starting XI if he is healthy, as he started in 17 straight games before his injury but will most likely end up on the bench after such a quick turnaround. However, if he doesn't play, expect Sven Botman and Fabian Schar to get the start as the pair in the center of defense.

Suffers injury Saturday Lascelles left Saturday's match against Luton Town in the first half with an injury.

Injury minor Lascelles (leg) came off limping during the second half of Thursday's 3-0 loss to Everton with an apparent injury.

Impact Lascelles' injury isn't expected to be serious as manager Eddie Howe added it was likely just a dead leg. The defender should be back as soon as a Sunday trip to Tottenham, even on short rest. If he isn't deemed fit to go it will be Emil Krafth in the starting XI.

Quiet in start Lascelles generated one shot (zero on goal) in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat against Borussia Dortmund.

Impact Lascelles started for the fourth match in a row with Sven Botman (knee) still on the sideline. The defender isn't likely to see much play when Botman is back but Lascelles has done passably as a replacement option alongside Fabian Schar. With Botman expected to be out until the international break Lascelles should have at least four more matches in the starting XI.

Impact It has been revealed that Lascelles had been the victim involving him and his brother on Aug 20 which forced him away from the team for a few days.

Involved in altercation Lascelles was involved in an altercation and could be in doubt for Saturday's clash versus Brighton, per the BBC.

Impact Lascelles' off the field actions could put him at risk of playing time. He has yet to appear in a match this season as he was an unused substitute the first three games of the new campaign.

Impact Lascelles was an unused substitute 23 times last season and made just one start in seven outings. As such, the defender shouldn't be expected to suddenly start featuring in the starting XI with any consistency. As such, Lascelles is unlikely to offer much in the way of fantasy production.

JULY 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with muscular injury Lascelles has missed Newcastle's first two preseason games with tightness in his muscle, manager Eddie Howe told reports on Sunday. "We hope he'll be back very soon."

Impact Lascelles only started two Premier League games last season behind Sven Botman, Fabian Schar and Dan Burn in Newcastle's center-back depth chart. He still has almost a month to recover from this injury before the 2023/24 campaign kicks off in August.
