Newcastle United’s star will miss Tottenham Hotspur, Nottingham Forest, and Bournemouth due to a one-month injury.
Following his 1-0 success against Southampton last weekend, Howe will want to make it back-to-back victories when he visits his previous team, AFC Bournemouth, on Sunday (kick-off at 2pm). After Schar was sent off for a collision with Ben Brereton Diaz, the Magpies managed to win even though they played for more than an hour with just ten men.
Play was stopped for a free kick by referee Craig Pawson, but Brereton Diaz crashed into Schar. and the Switzerland international confronted the Saints player in response. Brereton Diaz threw himself to the ground as they touched foreheads, and Pawson grabbed for his back pocket.
Pawson’s on-field judgement was examined by VAR in relation to the event. The club filed an appeal after Howe stated during the game that he felt the sending off was “harsh.”
However, that was upheld, and Schar will miss the following three games against Tottenham Hotspur, Bournemouth, and Nottingham Forest before making a comeback on Sunday, September 15, when the team visits Wolverhampton Wanderers.
United is expecting an explanation for the decision’s non-reversal. Dan Burn and Emil Krafth will play together in central defence as United attempts to finalise a club-record move for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi. The Friday 11 p.m. summer window closes.
