In the latest team news, Harvey Barnes is set to make his first appearance at St. James’ Park as a Newcastle United player. The Magpies will be facing off against Villarreal in the Sela Cup, presented by VisitMalta.
Newcastle’s Summer Signing
Harvey Barnes, who recently joined Newcastle from Leicester, had the opportunity to play twice at the Premier League Summer Series in the USA last month. However, this game against Villarreal will mark his first appearance on home soil. The match is scheduled for Sunday with a 16:00 BST kick-off.
A Different Starting Lineup
Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has decided to name a completely different starting XI compared to the previous day’s victorious 2-0 game against Fiorentina. The Magpies are aware that a win or draw in this match will secure them the trophy at the end of the day.
In goal, Nick Pope will be starting for Newcastle, while Jacob Murphy is expected to take up the right-back position. Jamaal Lascelles will captain the team and will partner with Paul Dummett in central defense, while Dan Burn will play at left-back. In midfield, Sean Longstaff, who is returning from injury, will join Bruno Guimarães and Matt Ritchie. Harvey Barnes and Joelinton will provide support to last season’s leading goalscorer, Callum Wilson.
Strong Bench
Mark Gillespie will be the substitute goalkeeper for Newcastle. The bench will also include several young prospects from the club, including Ben Parkinson, Jay Turner-Cooke, and Michael Ndiweni, who all had the opportunity to play against Fiorentina on Saturday.
Final Words
