Antonio: A football player should be loyal to himself, not to the club

The former striker of London’s West Ham team, Michael Antonio, supported Newcastle striker Alexander Isak. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

For your information, the Swedish player Alexander Isak was excluded from team training due to starting negotiations with Liverpool. Michael Antonio expressed his opinion on this matter, emphasizing that a player should be loyal to the fans, not the club.

According to him, a player strives to improve his life, work on himself, and achieve results that he could not achieve at another club. Therefore, the player's pursuit of his goals is more important than loyalty to the club.

Antonio also mentioned that nowadays clubs view players as commodities, and when they are no longer needed, they can easily leave. He reminded that he has been active in the West Ham squad for ten years, emphasizing that today players are driven more by personal ambition and financial interests rather than loyalty to the club.

Antonio added that players' decisions should be respected, and every player has the right to determine their own future.
