Newcastle United striker Joelinton has been fined £200 by the Northumbria Police for breaking lockdown restrictions to get a hair cut. The 24-year-old shared a picture of himself with a barber at North Shields garage last week, and the club said they will be taking appropriate action internally. Joelinton was not involved in the subsequent Premier League games against Everton and Crystal Palace, but was named on the bench for both games. Hair salons and barbers in England are currently closed under lockdown regulations due to the coronavirus pandemic, and the Brazilian should have known better than to put himself and teammates at risk.
