Jorgen Stand Larsen: Wolves reject the offer of 50 million pounds from Newcastle for the Norwegian striker

But Wolves’ position illustrates the challenge that the Magpies faced to convince a club to separate from a key figure, and shortly to find a replacement, before the transfer window stops on September 1.

“He is a very important player for us,” said Wolves manager Vitor Pereira, who also lost Brazil Matheus Cunha striker in Manchester United in summer.

“I haven’t talked about it.

Anthony Gordon started in advance – and was sent – against the Liverpool champions on Monday evening in the continuing absence of Alexander Isak of the team.

The Swedish striker Isak trains far from the rest of his teammates after having made his wish to join Liverpool clearly, but Newcastle does not provide that their “conditions” of sale be fulfilled in the last days of the window.

Having now had offers for Wissa and Strand Larsen refused, the club faces a race against time to recruit an attacker, not to mention two, and it is before the prospect that Liverpool makes another offer.

Newcastle tried to sign a number of attackers this summer, but Hugo Ekitike joined Liverpool, the international Slovenia Benjamin Sesko chose Manchester United and Joao Pedro left Brighton for Chelsea.
