Chris Waddle Urges Isak Sale Amid Chaos…
Former Newcastle United legend Chris Waddle has hilariously declared that the Magpies’ handling of Alexander Isak’s transfer saga is like watching a bunch of pub blokes try to organize a chess tournament! Isak has skipped the first two matches, hoping for a dramatic exit like he’s auditioning for a Broadway play. Missing trips to big games, he’s eagerly waiting for the moment Newcastle decides on his fate before the transfer window slams shut. Come Monday, Isak may find himself cracking nuts at home or reapplying emotional mascara for a return to Eddie Howe’s plans.
Waddle suggests the whole ordeal is more muddled than a cat trying to herd humans at a parade. Newcastle has shown interest in players like Jorgen Strand Larsen and Yoane Wissa, hoping one might materialize before Isak leaves his football boots hanging. Their rejected offer for Larsen was worth a whopping $74 million! Meanwhile, Isak has been seen talking with Newcastle’s owners, but his resolve to leave is as firm as a cat sleeping on a hot tin roof. Manager Eddie Howe is keeping his focus on those itching to play while leaving the talking and musical chairs to others.
