According to reports, Isaac Hayden’s loan at Standard Liege will finish next month, and in January, Newcastle United will reportedly start looking for a new home for the 28-year-old midfield player. Many Championship clubs have shown interest in signing him on a loan.
Since the summer transfer window, Isaac Hayden has been on a season-long loan at Standard Liege; nevertheless, despite his brief tenure, he has struggled to establish consistency.
In just 10 games for Standard Liege so far in the 2023–24 campaign, Isaac Hayden has neither contributed a goal or an assist. Interestingly, he has missed four of their last five league games.
With his diminishing role and Newcastle’s desire to provide him with more playing time, there’s a push to terminate the loan early and secure a new club for Hayden in the second half of the season, according to a report from Football Insider.
Newcastle is actively seeking a new midfield signing, prompted by Sandro Tonali’s extended suspension due to betting offenses. The club, along with Juventus, are reportedly leading the race to sign Kalvin Phillips from Manchester City in the upcoming transfer window.
Isaac Hayden joined Newcastle in 2016 from Arsenal and the midfielder has since played 171 appearances for the Magpies. Now, he’s no longer wanted, and is keen to move on as soon as possible.
