Newcastle United boss John Carver expects Rolando Aarons to return to action to the end of the season.

Aarons has struggled with a hamstring injury for much of the campaign.

Carver said: "With the amount of time he has been out, we have to take it carefully with him.

"He's had a good week. He looks comfortable, if a little bit rusty.

"He's working extremely hard.

"And he will be back before the end of the season."
