Shearer believes that Wissa's decision to represent his country in AFCON will be a difficult one, as players always want to represent their nation. However, he also thinks that Wissa could have shown more responsibility by not playing as much as he did on his international duty. This would have given him more time to settle in and train with Newcastle.
Shearer understands that AFCON is a huge tournament, and players want to participate. He acknowledges that it will be tough for Wissa to make a decision, especially considering the importance of representing his country. Shearer also notes that Wissa's decision will be influenced by the fact that he hasn't played for Newcastle yet, and that he needs to show loyalty to the club.
Wissa reportedly earns £140,000 per week and was signed by Newcastle for £55million. However, ultimately, the decision to represent his country or stay with Newcastle is Wissa's choice. Representing his country may be more important to him than staying with the Magpies.
