Magpies Stunned in Celtic Showdown…
In what felt like a football soap opera plucked straight from Neverland, Alexander Isak has vanished from the Newcastle squad quicker than a cat can lick its ear! As the swirling winds of transfer gossip whisk him towards Liverpoolâs red embrace, Isak was as conspicuous by his absence as a refereeâs whistle at a Sunday League game. The Magpies took a nose-dive at Celtic Park, crashing to a 4-0 drubbing where even the seagulls were seen laughing from the stands!
William Osula, brave as a knight from King Arthurâs round table, valiantly led the Newcastle charge, much like a penguin trying to fly amongst eagles. Meanwhile, Eddie Howe, Newcastle’s manager and knower-of-all-things-pressing, took the wheel. In an act worthy of a superhero flick, he made the executive call to send Isak home, citing the âwild tornado of rumorsâ surrounding the Swedish strikerâs potential switch-a-roo to Liverpool land. Howe assured the Toon faithful, in tones as serious as a referee explaining the offside rule, that Isak would remain with them by the end of the transfer window.
But the plot thickens! Liverpool, with a shopping list as long as a referee’s post-game report, has left Isak hanging on a red string of hope, akin to waiting for a bus that’s already left the station. Theyâve also snagged Hugo Ekitike from Frankfurt, the latest addition to their merry band. Yet, whispers are creeping that the Anfield squad might still make room for the Swede if Newcastle fancies a deal. Stay tuned, because as we know, the ball is round and the transfer market ever rounder!
