Wissa's behavior is similar to that of Newcastle striker Alexander Isak, who also attempted to join Liverpool during the preseason. This type of behavior has raised concerns among fans and experts, who worry that it may become more common in the football world. Players are increasingly making demands despite being tied down to contracts.

Ajer spoke to a Norwegian media outlet about Wissa's situation and defended his actions. He stated that the issue of players being treated unfairly by clubs is often overlooked. "Unfortunately, this is the reality of modern football," Ajer said. "Clubs often focus on pushing out players with longer contracts, rather than treating them fairly when they're not performing well."

Ajer's comments provide insight into the mindset of modern football players, who are increasingly prioritizing their own interests and career goals. With contracts becoming less binding, players like Wissa and Isak are taking control of their own transfer negotiations. This trend may continue, especially if players are able to secure their desired moves.

Ajer's defense of Wissa's behavior highlights the complexities of modern football. While some may view Wissa's actions as aggressive or entitled, Ajer sees it as a reflection of the power dynamic between clubs and players.
