Sunderland, Champions League and the 11 Newcastle games Bruno could miss
Bruno Guimaraes will miss up to 12 matches including Premier League and Champions League games as Newcastle manages a cautious recovery to avoid long-term damage.
- On Feb 14, 2026 Newcastle confirmed captain Bruno Guimaraes faces up to two months out with a hamstring injury and was not named in the FA Cup squad against Aston Villa.
- Reports say he was substituted in stoppage time during Tottenham after appearing to pick up a knock, and scans indicate muscle damage from last month's PSV match.
- The midfielder has nine goals in 35 appearances, and Newcastle have failed to win 12 Premier League matches without him since his €40 million transfer from Lyon.
- He could miss 12 matches, including Qarabag play-off and Sunderland Tyne–Wear derby, leaving Sandro Tonali, Jacob Ramsey, and Joe Willock as the only fit senior central midfielders.
- Looking ahead, Howe expects Bruno Guimaraes to miss the March international break and Brazil friendlies while meeting Rodrigo Lasmar for treatment, with a probable return in April.
