SAD News: Newcastle forwarder William osula confirmed his sudden departure in a press conference few minutes ago
Newcastle United will be looking to get back to winning ways against Brighton and Hove Albion next time out in the Premier League, after drawing blanks away at Everton last match.
Fabian Hürzeler’s Brighton and Hove Albion stand in the way of the Magpies, who could have to rely upon Anthony Gordon as their lone striker for the test of the Seagulls again, despite the 23-year-old missing a decisive spot-kick at Goodison Park to cost his side a win.
Eddie Howe will keep his fingers crossed that Alexander Isak could be back for this clash, away from having to rely on Gordon as a makeshift striker, with the former Borussia Dortmund man proving himself to be a superstar in the past for the Magpies when fully at the races.
Isak’s time with Newcastle
The world would have been expected of the Swedish sharp shooter when he arrived to Newcastle in the summer of 2022, having cost the Tyneside team an eye-watering £63m to pick up, a record fee for the Premier League club to splurge out on.
He would instantly hit the ground running in his new surroundings however, to at least start justifying all the millions splashed out on him from the get-go, with an electric ten strikes notched up from 22 top-flight games during his debut season.
He would better these numbers in his second campaign with Howe’s men, with a stunning 21 goals managed in league action, but this season to date hasn’t quite gone according to plan.
