London [UK], February 14 : Newcastle United defender Kieran Trippier is set to be sidelined for the club's upcoming fixtures after fracturing a bone in his foot during Sunday's 1-0 victory over Aston Villa in the Premier League.
The 31-year-old scored the game's only goal at St. James' Park to help the Magpies to a third successive Premier League win, but had to be substituted early in the second half after sustaining a foot injury.
The full-back underwent an X-ray immediately after the game and scans have shown a fracture to the fifth metatarsal bone in his left foot.
"Everyone at the club wishes Kieran a speedy recovery," the Premier League club in a statement said.
