- Heskey slams Isak and Wissa’s transfer antics
- Guehi praised as a model professional at Palace
- Isak is yet to make his Anfield bow
Wissa caused a similar stir at برينتفورد, forcing his move to Newcastle for £55 million after a public show of dissatisfaction. While Isak and Wissa were embroiled in standoffs, كريستال بالاس captain Guehi remained calm and collected amid ليفربول‘s interest. Unlike the two strikers, he led by example. Just a day before the deadline, he played a starring role in Palace’s 3-0 victory over أستون فيلا, scoring the second goal and inspiring his side to the three points. And Heskey singled him out as a shining example of professionalism.
Speaking exclusively to the Daily Star Sport مع Mr. Gamble Heskey said: “You don’t often see this from English players. Over the years, it has mainly been foreign players who have gone on strike, where the English players just get on with their football and let it all play out and get on with their job. There have been more foreign players to go on strike, not train, to get what they want. I don’t like it all really. ou look at Guehi, a true professional and us English lads just get on with playing and doing our job as footballers.”
Guehi is now set to remain at Selhurst Park until at least January. The 25-year-old’s contract runs out in the summer, and Palace may look to cash in during the winter window. If not, he will walk away as a free agent next summer, with several European giants keen to get his services.
Isak and Wissa have not yet featured for their new clubs. The Swedish striker is poised to make his Liverpool debut against بيرنلي, while Wissa is expected to play when Newcastle face Wolves after the international break.
