Newcastle United are having a terrible transfer window so far, as they are losing out on most of their target, and they are also set to lose their biggest star, Alexander Isak, to one of their biggest rivals Liverpool. They are trying their best to block the move, but the 25 year old is desperate to leave.
Alexander Isak had been extremely impressive as long as he had been active in Newcastle United, and in both of his last two seasons, he scored over 20 goals. He has been one of the most wanted forwards in Europe this season, but his price tag has been a barrier for most teams.
Newcastle United are potentially targeting sign £26 million rated forward
Liverpool, on the other hand, have money this season, and they have already slashed a lot of money in this transfer window. It looks like they are still not done yet, and they are ready to make at least one more major transfer in the form of Alexander Isak. Newcastle United are also trying to find a replacement.
Alexander Isak wants to leave the Magpies for Liverpool
So far, the process of replacing the Swedish International has not gone very smoothly. The first name they had as their target to replace Isak was Benjamin Sesko. But it seems Manchester United are going to hijack this deal, and Newcastle United Football Club would not be able to get the Slovenian international.
Yoane Wissa scored 20 goals in all competitions for Brentford last season
According to the latest reports, the Magpies have found a temporary solution to replace Alexander Isak. The Brentford forward Yoane Wissa is reported to be on the radar of the former English League champions presently. Wissa is very much capable of playing both as a forward and midfielder, and he is vastly talented.
The DR Congo International had been quite impressive for his present side, Brentford, and he managed 20 goals in all competitions last season. That 28 year old can definitely be a temporary solution for Newcastle United if they cannot keep Alexander Isak. But ultimately, they would have to look forward to a long term replacement even if they manage to sign the £26 million rated forward.
