The DR Congo attacker is back on the grass and edging closer to making his debut after his £55m move from Brentford.

Wissa has been earmarked for a comeback date in either the game at Everton or the home meeting against Tottenham Hotspur at the start of next month.

Wissa has not featured for Newcastle after picking up a knee injury in September playing for DR Congo against Senegal. Howe is pondering whether he will pair Wissa with Nick Woltemade in attack.
