Newcastle keeper Krul sidelined with injury

Tim Krul is facing several weeks on the sidelines at Newcastle United, reports the Sunderland Echo. The stopper injured his ankle in last night's 1-0 win over Metalist Kharkiv in the Ukraine and had a scan today after arriving back on Tyneside.

The 24-year-old is yet to see an ankle specialist, and the club has not put a timescale on his comeback.

However, BBC Radio Newcastle are reporting that he will be out for five weeks.
