Newcastle United defender Ciaran Clark is set to miss the rest of the season with injury.

Newcastle United fans have been left gutted after Ciaran Clark was ruled out for the rest of the season.

The Daily Star claim that the Newcastle centre-back has damaged his ankle ligaments and now is set for months on the sidelines.

The Republic of Ireland international will not be fit again until next season.

And Newcastle fans admit that losing Clark is a major blow to Steve Bruce’s side.

Clark began this term out of contention at Newcastle, but he has really proven his worth since.

The towering centre-back forced his way into Bruce’s starting line-up, and he has arguably been their best performing defender this term.

Newcastle do have Florian Lejeune back to fitness now, so they have cover for Clark, but losing a key player when they are out of form is hardly ideal.

Newcastle are currently sat in 14th place in the Premier League table, seven points above the drop zone.
