Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak fresh injury update will shock fans

Due to an injury, Alexander Isak is not expected to play for Newcastle United in their Premier League encounter against Fulham on Saturday at three o’clock in the afternoon.

As a result of an eye problem, Isak was taken out of the game at halftime during Newcastle’s 2-1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers. However, the striker was also seen walking with a limp as he left Molineux, which is an indication that there is another problem.

Since then, Isak has been absent from training this week, and it is uncertain whether he will be able to make it to the match against Craven Cottage on Saturday. Despite the fact that Isak’s eye problem has improved, the striker is still a questionable candidate for the forthcoming match due to an injury to his toe, as reported by Mail Online.

Eddie Howe, the head coach of Newcastle, is faced with a potential conundrum as a result of the fact that Callum Wilson is also unable to play because of a back ailment that has kept him out of action for more than two months. It is anticipated that the 32-year-old will continue to be sidelined until the month of October.

Although Will Osula is a striker option for the club, he has not yet participated in a match that is considered to be a competitive encounter. Following the injury sustained by Isak while playing for Wolves, Howe took the decision to transform Anthony Gordon into a central player, while Harvey Barnes was brought in to play on the left wing.

The same thing might take place once more at Fulham if it is determined that Isak is not fit enough to start games.

Howe responded to a question about the seriousness of Isak’s injury by saying, “Absolutely hope not [serious], he’s such an important player to us.”

Over the course of the previous season, the Sweden international scored 25 goals across all competitions for Newcastle. As of this season, he has scored one goal in five matches played. Having won three of their first four league matches and drawing one of them, Newcastle will be hoping to continue their unblemished start to the new season when they travel to Fulham. They have won three of their matches and drawn one of them.
