NEWCASTLE United's Brazilian defender Claudio Cacapa could be out for up to five weeks after injuring a groin in training.

 

The 31-year-old was forced to sit out of Saturday's 2-0 victory over Fulham after picking up the strain on Friday morning.

 

And Magpie gaffer Kevin Keegan confirmed today that the former Lyon skipper will be sidelined for at least a month.

 

"We have lost Claudio Cacapa for about four to five weeks," he explained.

 

"He pulled his groin in training on Friday and that's why Lamine Diatta was in the squad against Fulham on Saturday."

 

Cacapa has scored twice from 21 appearances since joining the Geordies on a free transfer from the French champions last summer.
