Piers Morgan Urges Arsenal to Sign Isak in January Transfer Window
Piers Morgan, the outspoken British broadcaster and lifelong Arsenal fan, has called on the club to make a bold move in the January transfer window by signing Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak.
Morgan urged Arsenal to “break the bank” for the Swedish forward, who he believes is currently the best striker in Europe.
“Aubameyang was a world-class striker with an incredible record at Arsenal,” Morgan said. “Yes, Arsenal moved on from him, but who did they bring in to replace him?”
Morgan, who has frequently called for the club to sign a top-tier striker, went on to say, “It’s time to stop being calm and polite about this – we need a proper striker, and we need one now! To win major trophies, Arsenal must be ruthless and go after the best players available.”
Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey has opened up about a difficult period in his career, revealing that he almost stepped away from football.
Speaking during a recent interview, Bassey shared that he once made a personal promise to himself to quit pursuing football professionally if he failed to secure a spot at a professional club.
“I remember being 15 and going into my final year, and I told myself that if I didn’t get into a professional club, I would quit football. It was that simple,” he said.
“I would just stop pursuing it seriously and only play for fun. Thank God I eventually got a club, because I honestly don’t know where I would be otherwise.”
It has been reported that the Confederation of African Football (CAF) fined Egypt $5,000 following their clash with Zimbabwe for failing to manage post-match media obligations.
It was noted that after the match, the Egyptian players ignored the media. This action was said to be a violation of CAF’s media regulations, which led to the fine being imposed.
Head of the Super Eagles, Eric Chelle, shared that the big-name players on the team are not happy about being benched.
He recalled when he took out Samuel Chukwueze during the match against Tanzania.
“Yes, of course, we’ve in this team a lot of big names. They are competitors; they aren’t happy when they go to the bench,” Chelle said at his post-match interview.”
“My job is to make choices, and we’re playing a 4-4-2 diamond, and at this moment I feel we have to protect the wing.”
