Newcastle United WAG teases summer wedding with hen party snaps

It looks like Joelinton could be gearing up for a big summer after signing a new deal at Newcastle United.

Earlier this month, United announced the Brazilian had signed a new contract at the club after months of negotiations. The fresh deal will see the 27-year-old stay on Tyneside until 2028.

But Joelinton is in a race to play again this season after undergoing thigh surgery in January. The midfielder was subbed off during Newcastle’s 3-0 FA Cup win and has been sidelined ever since.

However, he has been filmed back on the grass and could feature for Eddie Howe’s side as early as Burnley away on Saturday 4 May.

Asked if Joelinton will play again this campaign, Howe replied: “I think Joe will tell you yes but we need to make sure he is ready to play, we can’t rush the process. He has to be feeling good and we have to minimise risk. “Undoubtedly yeah [we’ve missed him]. I think he’s got that presence as well, he’s a big guy, not only in personality but stature. I think we’ve missed his duel winning ability, his coverage in midfield and versatility as well.

“That can’t be underestimated when you have injuries like we have, it’s important we have players who can play dual roles. We need him back as quickly as possible.”

But that’s not all the Brazilian has to look forward to.

This weekend, his fiancé, Thays Gondim, shared snaps of her hen party- complete with Joelinton memorabilia.

Last summer, Joelinton was best man for United teammate and fellow Brazilian Bruno Guimaraes. And it looks like there’s another big Toon wedding on the horizon.

Joelinton and Thays have three children together, after welcoming their third last year.
