Newcastle head coach Eddie Howe expressed his support and noted Wissa’s importance to the team:

“He’s a proven Premier League goalscorer, and players like that are extremely hard to find. Wissa has always been a tough opponent; he’s scored against us, and I respect his journey. I hope he adapts to Newcastle just as successfully.”

Reminder: Wissa’s transfer to Newcastle almost fell through due to an unusual mistake.
