Newcastle United’s contingency plan in case Alexander Isak leaves has been’revealed’.
Isak’s ability is undeniable, and his performances this season have been among the greatest in the Premier League. As a result, the media considers little old Newcastle unworthy of the Swede, peddling its ‘big six’ propaganda rubbish with frequent references to the striker.
Taking the 25-year-old away from St. James’ Park would require a record-breaking price. However, if any team succeeds, sporting director Paul Mitchell will face a difficult task in finding a suitable replacement. According to a new source, he is already considering another free-scoring forward.
Gyokeres discovered in the worst-case scenario?
Newcastle will look to sign Viktor Gyokeres if fellow Swede Isak is moved this summer, according to FootballTransfers.
After reporting on our interest in early December, they claim that Toon officials had ‘held fresh conversations’ about an ambitious bid for the former Coventry forward.
The Sporting Lisbon forward’s contract includes a €100 release clause, but the Portuguese team will accept a lower fee for the sharpshooting attacker, who has already scored 34 goals this season.
If you’re about to lose your best player, replacing him with one of the continent’s most sought-after men is exactly the message Newcastle needs to make, not that we want Isak to leave anytime soon.
The priority must be to keep Isak satisfied.
PIF and Eddie Howe’s top priority must be to keep Isak happy and on track for our future objectives at all costs.
Whatever motivation the 25-year-old requires to remain a Newcastle player must be provided – while Gyokeres is a talented striker, our star man feels irreplaceable. We must show ambition, re-secure Champions League football, and invest in our squad this summer if that is what it takes, with all three things being critical to this project, regardless of Isak’s demands or desires.
Similarly, if Isak wants a better contract to dedicate his future to our football club, it should be a no-brainer. He is one of the world’s best goal scorers, yet he does not come around very frequently.
