Swedish Star’s Newcastle Stint in Question…
Sweden’s manager Jon Dahl Tomasson has thrown a spotlight on the fascinating high-wire act that’s Alexander Isak’s career by including him in the squad despite his great disappearing act from Newcastle’s league games this season. It’s like including your invisible friend in a game of hide and seek—funny because he seems to be hiding from St. James’ Park too! Although Isak dreams of swapping the Toon life for Liverpool’s Scouse shores, Newcastle isn’t backing down, shrugging off bids like a waiter ignoring empty water glasses. Post-preseason, he’s been training alone while imagining Anfield’s greener pastures.
Isak’s absence didn’t stop Newcastle from partaking in a rollercoaster 3-2 defeat to Liverpool, highlighting his Houdini act as he was nowhere to be seen. Seriously, is he a footballer or an undercover illusionist? While the Swedish sensation missed the scoreless villa opener, Tomasson spoke highly of his striker’s prowess, comparing Isak to a passport—indispensable but hard to keep track of! With 16 international goals in 52 caps, the Swede continues to make waves and in his move to the national team, showing he’s agreed to play ball once more, even if not for the Magpies. It’s like asking a fish to join a birdwatching club, but hey, Isak seems game!
