Newcastle Ban Isak Talk as Joelinton Says Team Has Moved On

Newcastle redirected the windfall into Nick Woltemade, with Yoane Wissa progressing in his knee recovery.

Overview

  • The club imposed a dressing-room ban on mentioning Alexander Isak following his deadline-day transfer to Liverpool after a summer-long saga.
  • Joelinton said the squad is staying professional, wishing Isak well but emphasizing focus on the players currently available.
  • Newcastle beat League One Bradford 4-1 in the Carabao Cup, with braces from Joelinton and William Osula.
  • Much of the reported £130m received for Isak has been reinvested in record signing Nick Woltemade (£69m) and Yoane Wissa (£55m).
  • Wissa is recovering from a knee injury sustained with DR Congo, with a potential return targeted next month as Newcastle prepare to host Arsenal on Sunday.
