Jamie Carragher discusses the likelihood of Newcastle United retaining Alexander Isak in January, given reports of a £150 million valuation. Carragher acknowledges Isak's exceptional talent but points out the striker's desire to play for a Champions League-caliber team.
Jamie Carragher to Sky Sports on whether Newcastle will hang on to Alexander Isak in January amid reports of a £150m valuation for the striker: 'I think they will because I don’t think anyone would pay that type of money really. Not that he’s not worth it, who knows what players are worth now? 'I absolutely love him - I think he is fantastic. I thought that from the first time I saw him score a goal at Anfield a couple of years ago.
'When you have a player of the quality, the conundrum that Newcastle have got is this is a guy who should be playing for a team who are playing in the Champions League every year. For Newcastle, that’s’ not really the case - it’s hoping to get there. They're a bit of a team that might be in it, might not be in it.'He will be looking at other strikers across the world thinking, 'I’m as good as him, I’m better than him and they are in the Champions League every year'.
