Good reminder as you watch any transfer circus unfold that nobody actually has any idea what's really going on.
What information does get reported is purely PR from either the clubs or the player. If it's out there, it's because that benefits one of the parties involved.
🚨 - #NUFC winger Anthony Gordon has revealed his feelings ahead of the 2025/26 season in an exclusive interview with @CraigHope_DM 👇🏽
“The last three years have been mentally draining for me. Football became like a chore - there was always so much noise around me. There were so many games and I never had a summer off. Last year, I had just over a week off, plus all the noise. At times, I felt negative.” 🪫
“But, I don’t feel like that now! This year, I’ve had a full summer off with my family and friends. You can see, I’m really refreshed. I’ve got my appetite back for football - I didn’t have that last year. All I care about now is Newcastle. The way I got into the England squad was playing well for Newcastle - that’s the way I’ll get what I want from life.” 🗣️
Brilliant to hear! 🙌🏽
He has never ever indicated he’d do summit like this, he’s always been massivley laid back about everything and a calm character. He is absolutely being advised to do this by his agent.
However, he still has the ability to think and act freely.
Club need to act. #NUFC
Can you actually blame Isak for wanting to leave? We’ve signed 1 player to improve our first team in the past 2 years, we cancelled his contract talks last summer and said we’d revisit them next year, then didn’t. Said we’d improve squad but haven’t, you can’t blame him. #NUFC
I know this is boring, and copium™, but Isak has not "asked to leave" Newcastle
An anonymous source has said he "wants to consider his options" in a summer where he's a) hugely in demand and b) hasn't been offered the new contract he was promised. Which, yeah, why wouldn't he?
