Would selling Isak make sense?
- Published
BBC Sport pundit Nedum Onuoha gives us his insight and opinion every fortnight on your Premier League club but this week he's in the hotseat answering your questions.
Steve asked: Why are Newcastle considering selling Alexander Isak to raise the money to buy a top striker? Isn’t he a top striker, so why sell him?
Nedum replied: It is a good question because as far as the Premier League goes, he is up there in terms of strikers. He did very well last season and now that he is back from injury he looks set to get a few more goals as well.
I don't understand why they would sell one striker to bring in another but maybe there is more to it?
It could be a Profit and Sustainability Rules situation and in that case it would be a great shame to lose their top goal scorer because of that. Especially at a club like Newcastle, who are so proud of their number nines and strikers.
It doesn't make sense from a fan perspective or a true footballing perspective to sell him.
If this is what teams have to do to stay within the rules then it leads you to question the situation as a whole.
