Newcastle United suffer new injury scare as Bazoumana Toure faces assessment

Bazoumana Toure will be assessed at the KNOX ahead of Newcastle United's Saturday night shoot out against Aston Villa at St James' Park. The Ivory Coast youngster came on after 59 minutes against Coventry City last night during the 4-1 defeat, but the substitute ended up being substituted for Dan Burn in stoppage time after a challenge ended up with him rolling on to the track on the left wing. Toure's arrival had given Newcastle a brief lift as he asked questions of the home defence and built up some momentum before Sven Botman's stunning strike.
