2025 Fantasy Outlook
Joelinton had a few fights with injury in the 2024/25 campaign, but he started 29 matches, 14 more than the prior campaign. His physical play leads to a lot of bumps and bruises, which often leads to an absence or two throughout the season. He's never had crazy attacking numbers despite coming to Newcastle as more of a forward, but as seen in his four goals and three assists last season, he's always around to find production from the left side. It seems doubtful he'll keep his fitness for an entire campaign with Champions League to worry about, but his versatility means he's a lock to start in most games when healthy, keeping his floor fairly solid.
Back in preseason
F/MNewcastle United
July 12, 2025
Joelinton (knee) appeared for 45 minutes in a friendly against Carlisle United. "I feel fully fit and happy," he told NUFC.
ANALYSIS
Joelinton was expected to take the field for the preseason, and he has, with the midfielder getting time in a friendly. This should clear him moving forward, leaving him fit for the start of the season. He started in all 29 appearances last season while scoring four goals and three assists, and should be a starter once again this season.
