Lovenkrands Toon Career Over?


By Tyne-Talk

Newcastle United striker Peter Lovenkrands could never play for the club again after picking up a long term thigh injury. Pardew has been unable to confirm whether he has torn or ruptured his thigh but the news isn't good for the Dane who is out of contract in the summer.

Pardew said;

"We have got a bad injury this week - Peter Lovenkrands has really hurt his thigh.

We are not sure yet, but he's definitely torn it and he might have ruptured it, so we think that's him for the season, actually, which is a very big blow for him with his contract up and everything."

The 32 year old who has made just 9 appearances this season, 7 of those from the bench could now find he never plays again, depending on the severity of the problem and how well he recovers.

I hope he does get a good move when his contract is up as he was a important player in the promotion season, but at the moment not good enough for us.

Thanks for everything and hopefully a move the championship will kick start his career again

He isn't good enough for Premier League football and at 32 never will be again. Was decent for us in the Championship and hopefully will be for whoever he moves to next season (I'm assuming he won't get a club in the top league) as he's a good lad who's been through some tough stuff while with us. Maybe a move back to Rangers if the wages were right?

Can't see Rangers happening with the state they are in, I think a championship team would be a good move as you could see him still banging in the goals in that league

I'm guessing he's done then. Too bad.

Thanks for everything, Loven-best wishes and you'll always be fondly remembered!

Could see him back with Rangers. Then again, I could see him retiring depending on the severity of the injury.

he's been a decent player but he's the wrong side of 30 and probably on a decent wage, he can be replaced by a youngster who we can develop!

Also wth Loven i've lost how many times i've been watching a match and forgot he was playing until he's been substituted off!
