Fernandez signed for Newcastle last January from Spanish side UE Cornella, and although he hasn’t made his first-team debut at St James’ Park yet, the youngster has previously trained with the first-team in the hope of impressing Rafa Benitez.
Having joined Newcastle on pre-season recently, Fernandez has refused to let this latest set-back bring down his spirits, with the starlet keen to be back on the field as soon as possible. In his tweet, Fernandez said:
This start of the season has been complicated, with some problems that have finally made me go through surgery.
Today I have had an operation in the hip but luckily everything went very well and I am already thinking on recovering as soon as possible to play again.
