Alexander Isak (CF) Newcastle

As you said sounds like there was a gentleman’s agreement which has been reneged. That erodes trust.

Destroyed by AC Milan, we need Isak desperately. Raising the odds of pulling this off to 2% in a desperate move.

Not needed, apparently we playing 1 at the back.

I think @SixpenceNun posted something on that last night or this morning. If i remember it correctly it cited Mitchell as opting against the new contract because of PSR concerns. Which if true shows how close they must be sailing and raises questionsvover their handling of the Isak situation and in spending so much on Elanga.

That was last summer, back when things were tight enough that they had to sell Elliott against their wishes. They are now in the situation we were in when Ward left though that they have big medium term decisions to make with no one in place with the authority and skin in the game to make that decision.

Other than the owner, who has made clear he is a big fan and is upset at our approach.

Could he do that please? Take number 66 and we can have millions of fans around the world with hand written taped on names on their existing TAA shirts?

How on earth would we pay off his transfer fee in shirt sales? :wink:

Would be good if we signed him, and the shops started printing the shirts in this manner on request :0)

Watching Newcastle vs Arsenal and if Isak can score 27 goals in a season playing alongside Murphy who just crosses the ball aimlessly then he should be hitting 40+ for us with the service he will receive.

Surely down quickly once Diaz goes. Then get a CB or two and the squad is hunky dory

He said a few days ago that Newcastle need to get the best possible outcome. It’s a way of saying that at least they’re trying to get the highest possible price. I’m guessing it will surpass the fee we paid for Wirtz and therefore be the new record, but how much more, remains to be seen.

We’ll probably look to sell Nunez first.
