# Newcastle United: Jordan Cronin reacts to Ryan Fraser injury news

**[Newcastle United](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/newcastle-united-news/) journalist Jordan Cronin has reacted to some big injury news that has now emerged before the Magpies play Liverpool in the [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/).**

### The Lowdown: Fraser update

Speaking in his pre-game press conference ahead of the match, Eddie Howe has [revealed](https://twitter.com/NUFC/status/1519969434198323202) that while Ryan Fraser has been out on the grass, he has not trained ahead of the clash with the title-chasing Reds.

He is not sure whether the Scotland international will be able to play again this season, but insists that it is not a ‘serious injury’.

### The Latest: Cronin reacts

Taking to Twitter, Newcastle World journalist [Cronin](https://twitter.com/jordancronin_/status/1519965328947793921) has given his reaction to Howe’s comments, claiming that Fraser’s season could be over:

*“Sounds like Ryan Fraser’s season could be over.”*

### The Verdict: Big blow

Howe’s comments certainly do not sound promising, and so if they were to lose Fraser for the rest of the campaign, it would be a big blow.

He has been a key part of their turnaround under the manager, as he has contributed two goals and two assists in the Premier League since February ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/ryan-fraser/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/146795/plus/0?saison=2021&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=)).

They are already missing a [number](https://www.premierinjuries.com/teams/newcastle-united) of key players through injury, and the task is an uphill one anyway against Jurgen Klopp’s side.

Nonetheless, the Magpies will now have to find a way to win games without him, as they look to secure a strong finish to the campaign.
