GAME LOG

First league goal Botman scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 3-2 defeat versus Brentford.
Impact Botman rose above the jostling pack to head home Newcastle's opening goal Saturday in their 3-2 home defeat at the hands of Brentford. The goal marked the central defender's first of the season and his first league goal since the 2023/24 campaign. In addition to his headed effort, Botman led the team defensively with nine clearances.

Struggles in return Botman (thigh) played 90 minutes in Wednesday's EFL Cup loss to Manchester City.
Impact Botman made his comeback from a small injury, confirming he's available for upcoming fixtures. He was included in a back three alongside Malick Thiaw and Dan Burn, although they had a weak outing against the Citizens. Botman made five consecutive starts before suffering the injury, averaging 7.4 clearances, 1.0 interceptions and 1.0 tackles per contest over that span.

Available in Carabao Cup Botman (thigh) is an option for the Carabao Cup second leg against Manchester City on Wednesday, coach Eddie Howe said in the press conference. "Sven is OK."
Impact Botman didn't feature in the last match against Liverpool due to a thigh injury that has since been confirmed as minor, leaving the defender fit and available as an option for Wednesday's Carabao Cup second leg against Manchester City. He had started each of his previous five appearances for the Magpies and is expected to regain his spot for that clash.

Unused with thigh injury Botman was unused for Saturday's 4-1 loss to Liverpool due to a thigh injury, according to manager Eddie Howe, per Craig Hope of the Daily Mail.
Impact Botman was on the team sheet Saturday but did not play, instead unused due to some injuries. Unfortunately, it appears he will miss time, as he is set to return when facing Manchester City on Feb. 21, missing four games if this is the case. The good news is they just returned Dan Burn to the lineup, with him and Malick Thiaw to start as central defenders with Sven Botman out.
FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE
Extends with Magpies Botman has extended his contract with Newcastle, according to his club.
Impact Botman is not leaving Newcastle anytime soon, as the defender has inked a new contract until summer 2030. He joined in 2022 and has seen time between the starting XI and bench, mainly losing time due to injuries an issue throughout the defenders career. He is currently seeing starting time but may be relegated back to a rotational spot once the defense is fit, with Malick Thiaw and Dan Burn (ribs) preferred this season.
JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE
Assist in win Botman assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Wednesday's 4-3 victory over Leeds United.
Impact Botman made an impact in what marked this first appearance since November 22, 2025. He entered the match to begin the second half and came up with a critical play by setting up Harvey Barnes for the winning goal late in second half extra time. The assist marked the first of the campaign for Botman, while he moved up to a total of five chances created over his 11 appearances.
JANUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE
Unused substitute Sunday Botman (back) remained an unused substitute in Sunday's 2-0 win against Crystal Palace, confirming he is back available for Newcastle.
Impact Botman cleared his back issues after missing all the games since late November and is now fit moving forward since he was an option from the bench in Sunday's win against the eagles. The center-back will likely resumed a rotational role until getting back to full competitive fitness and to avoid any new setbacks for a player labelled as injury prone in recent seasons.

Trains with group Botman (back) is back in team training and on the verge of a return, according to manager Eddie Howe. "He's very close. Sven's been training with the group which has been great, so...
Impact Botman is very close to seeing the field again after a time out with a back injury, as he is back in team training. This should leave him with a return in the next week or two, marking the end of an absence that has lasted since the end of November. He is a starter when fit and the club is low on defenders, so this is huge news, likely to send Fabian Schar back to the bench once fit.

Nearing return, not yet training Botman (back) is nearing a return but hasn't resumed team training yet, coach Eddie Howe said in the press conference, according to Craig Hope from the Daily Mail.
Impact Botman still has to resume team training after dealing with a back injury that required injections, but he is not far from making his return to the match squad. The center-back won't be available for Friday's clash against Manchester United, but a return against Burnley on Dec. 30 seems to be a possibility for the Dutch defender.

Not ready to play Botman (back) is making good progress but is not ready to play yet, coach Eddie Howe said in the press conference. "With Sven [Botman], we're not entirely sure when he'll return. H...
Impact Botman has made good progress following his injection to treat a back injury but isn't fit yet to play. The center-back doesn't have a specific timeline to return but is still expected to play before the end of the year. That said, Fabian Schar is expected to see a starting role for the Magpies with Botman not there yet and Dan Burn (ribs) sidelined until late January.

Receives injection, out for week Botman (back) received an injection to treat his injury that needs about a week to work, coach Eddie Howe said in the press conference. "Sven has had an injection. We hope that wil...
Impact Botman remains sidelined with a back injury since he received an injection after seeing a back specialist, and that treatment needs about a week to work. This will likely leave him out for the midweek clash against Leverkusen in the Champions League and a doubt for next week's clash against Sunderland on Sunday. That said, the center-back was only a bench option in the last two games, with Dan Burn taking back his role in central defense.
DECEMBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Will see back specialist Botman (back) is ruled out for the time being as he will see a specialist this week, coach Eddie Howe said to the media. "Sven is going to see a specialist this week. Fingers cross...
Impact Botman missed Saturday's clash against the Toffees due to a back injury and will see a specialist in the coming days to know the extend of that issue. This will rule him out for Tuesday's clash against Tottenham, with his next chance to feature coming against Burnley on Saturday. Fabian Schar is expected to see a greater role in the backline of the Magpies while he is sidelined.
NOVEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Missing Saturday Botman (back) is out for Saturday's match against Everton.
Impact Botman was a late call for Saturday and has not made the call after appearing to fail his testing, as he will wait another week as he recovers. He will look to return in their next contest and reclaim his starting role, starting in 11 of his 12 appearances this campaign.
NOVEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Late call against Everton Botman is nursing a back problem and will be a late call for Saturday's clash against Everton, coach Eddie Howe said in the press conference. "Sven has been nursing a back problem...
Impact Botman has been nursing a back problem in the last few days and will be a late fitness call for Saturday's clash against the Toffees. The center-back has started the last two games on the bench for the Magpies as Fabian Schar regained the starting role in the backline. Therefore a potential absence from the Dutchman will not impact the starting XI.
NOVEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Scores own goal Sunday Botman registered an own goal, one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-1 defeat versus West Ham United.
Impact Batman scored an own goal just before halftime Sunday, a mistake that gave West Ham the 2-1 lead and eventually the win. It was a tough moment for the defender, and he also did not do much else in the match to make up for it. He was subbed off in the 65th minute for Harvey Barnes.

Avoids concussion Botman suffered a head injury in Saturday's clash against Fulham that proved to be minor, as he only had a cut, coach Eddie Howe said in a press conference, according to NUFC Blog....
Impact Botman has avoided any serious concussion injury as the head issue he suffered turned out to be only a cut. The center-back is available for the Magpies moving forward, which is good news since he started each of his last seven appearances across all competitions for Newcastle. He contributed three chances created, five tackles and 40 clearances to help the team secure four clean sheets.
OCTOBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Exits with head injury Botman departed Saturday's contest against Fulham due to a head injury.
Impact Botman suffered a head blow and couldn't continue. Further tests will be needed to determine whether he'll have to miss time or not. Fabian Schar took his place on the defensive line.
OCTOBER 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Quiet in win Botman registered one shot (one on goal) in Tuesday's 3-0 win against Benfica.
Impact Botman took a single shot and didn't have much to do defensively throughout Tuesday's rout of Benfica. The defender wasn't tested during the match and kept the clean sheet with ease. He hasn't been an everyday starter, but injuries and rotation have meant that he's seen plenty of minutes since getting back fit.
OCTOBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Unused in opening matches Botman went unused in each of the first two Premier League matches.
Impact Botman has been on the bench for each of the first two matches, but seems to be lacking fitness. Malick Thiaw came on to replace the injured Fabian Schar during Monday's clash with Liverpool. Botman was limited to just eight appearances (six starts) last season in the Premier League, due to a plethora of injuries.
AUGUST 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
45 against Atletico Botman (groin) appeared for 45 minutes in a friendly against Atletico Madrid on Saturday.
Impact Botman was dealt an injury a week back in a friendly but has returned Saturday, starting and facing Atletico for 45 minutes. This should clear the defender for the start of the season, where he will likely serve as the club's first depth option off the bench, still earning starts here and there when starters are injured or need a rest.
