Newcastle fans are all saying the same thing after Jetro Willems was ruled out for the season

Newcastle United fans are all saying the same thing after Jetro Willems and Paul Dummett were ruled out for the season.

Magpies head coach Steve Bruce has now confirmed that the search for a new left-wing-back is under way.

When asked about Willems and Dummett, Bruce said: "It's what we feared, he has ruptured his cruciate.

"He's out for the rest of the season.

"It's not good news for Paul Dummett either, he has a tendon injury and is probably out for the season too.

"It's unfortunate as Jetro was settling in well and adapting to the Premier League.

"We hope for a speedy recovery and we will miss him."

Whether his loan move from Eintracht Frankfurt will be terminated remains to be seen at this stage but Newcastle fans are all now urging the club to sign Willems on a permanent basis.

Hayden Liddle said: "We should sign him permanently. Stupid to let him go. He has played amazing for us."

Jamie Rowntree added: "We need to sign Jetro permanently, he’s been brilliant for us this season!"
