Post: Newcastle is interested in Jackson and considers Watkins

July 27th According to the Daily Mail, in the event that Isaac may leave the team, Newcastle is interested in Chelsea striker Nicholas Jackson, and Villa's Watkins is also considering it. In addition, the deal to introduce Brentford attacker Visa to Newcastle is not over yet, and the players threatened to strike to facilitate the deal. At the same time, "Magpie" also asked about Leipzig striker Sesco's situation.

During the Asian tour, Newcastle coach Eddie Howe admitted: "As far as I know, there is no negotiation on Isaac's contract yet." This news made the situation clear, that is, Isaac does not want to renew his contract, he wants to join Liverpool. Newcastle knows this, and as Eddie Howe suggests, the club faces a two-choice decision: whether to stay or sell. Although this decision is difficult for club owners, Eddie Howe and fans, it is sometimes right to make such a decision.

Instead of forcing a player who is unwilling to stay, it is better to sell Isaac for a record transfer fee and reinvest. Eddie Howe is realistic enough to not deceive fans on this issue. If Newcastle really wants to keep Isaac, they should offer a very generous contract.

Eddie Howe wants Isaac to stay, hope he signs a new contract and gets the salary he deserves, and then makes him happy to return to the team. However, the Newcastle coach knew that this might not happen and he had to deal with the issue realistically, rather than blindly optimistic. As time goes by, the facts gradually become clear: forcing a player who is unwilling to stay is like sowing seeds in the sand, unable to harvest a happy locker room, nor bringing success. If Isaac is sold now, Newcastle still has time to bring in more players. Currently, Iranga is their only expensive signing this summer.

As for Isaac, one day the star players will leave Newcastle due to salary issues. His current weekly salary is about £150,000, and his team believes he deserves double the salary. However, allowing Isaac to leave may set a precedent for other players to seek departure through fraudulent injuries, which is a risky conundrum.
