"In what could potentially be a big blow for Newcastle, Yoane Wissa is to see a specialist over the knee injury he suffered in DR Congo's World Cup qualifier defeat by Senegal. Eddie Howe has revealed the 29-year-old forward a 55m deadline-day signing from Brentford will definitely miss Saturday's Premier League clash with Wolves. Wissa faces an anxious wait for an update before Thursday's Champions League opener against Barcelona."
"A lot of things happened on the last day, which is not always the situation because last season we hardly did anything during the whole window. The thing that pleased me most is us getting the deal for Alex over the line. Richard [Hughes], the ownership, everyone worked so hard to get the deal done, so it is very good for the club, for the fans, the players, for me that all the work they put in resulted in Alex signing for us."
"First of all, the Sweden manager Jon Dahl Tomasson deserves a big compliment because he gets one of the best strikers in the world, maybe the best striker in the world, and needs to play two very important games, but he understands if he plays him twice for 90 minutes then probably the player would have been injured for multiple weeks. That is not always easy for a manager that he takes care of the interest of a player."
Yoane Wissa will see a specialist for a knee injury sustained in DR Congo's World Cup qualifier defeat by Senegal. Eddie Howe confirmed the 29-year-old forward, a 55m deadline-day signing from Brentford, will definitely miss Saturday's Premier League clash with Wolves and faces an anxious wait for an update before Thursday's Champions League opener against Barcelona. Arne Slot welcomed the arrival of Alexander Isak and praised the club staff for completing the signing. Slot commended Sweden manager Jon Dahl Tomasson for managing Isak's minutes, stated Isak missed a proper pre-season, and said Isak will be built up gradually and not play 90 minutes every game.
