Joelinton Injury: Aims return after break

Joelinton suffered a groin injury in Monday's clash against Liverpool but it proved to be less serious than initially feared, with the midfielder aiming to return after the international break, coach Eddie Howe said in the press conference. "Relatively good news on the player, when he left the pitch we feared he may be out long-term. Joey's scan was good but he will miss this weekend, we'll hopefully get him back for the game after the international break."
