Sunderland’s Wilson Isidor and Noah Sadiki were left in absolute stitches after a fan’s dig at former Newcastle player Alexander Isak.
During a fan talent show ahead of the Tyne-Wear derby in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon, a Sunderland supporter and comedian named Dan spoke of a story about how he needed a heart transplant due to the stress of supporting the club for 30+ years.
He lifted up his top and showed a chest scar and ended with the punchline: “My heart stopped working… like Alexander Isak this summer.
Since his move from Newcastle, Isak has scored only 2 goals in 14 appearances since his £125million move (British-record fee) to Liverpool. Back in September, manager Arne Slot blamed his lack of match fitness following the long saga surrounding his future at Newcastle, before his departure.

Dan the fan said: “I’ve been supporting Sunderland for over 30 years, and as you probably know, it’s been very up and down. We’ve had a lot of tough times.
“To show the stress it puts on you, look at this scar on my chest – it’s from a heart transplant, I had an operation about five years ago.
“My heart stopped working, like Alexander Isak this summer.”
Sadiki: “it’s not possible” in French, with Isidor bursting into laugher.
Presenter Adam Smith: “Wow, oh my God.”
Isidor tried to compose himself, before then lifting his head from the table, looked behind him at the Sadiki, and said: “It’s not funny, man, he had a heart attack.”
Sadiki replied: “I don’t know,” when he was asked by the host why he was laughing.
Dan the fan admitted: “It’s okay, it’s the reaction I wanted. You laugh as much as you want.
“It’s not only on the body that the stress of supporting Sunderland for over 30 years takes its toll. As you can see, the hairline as well.
“30-plus years of being a Sunderland fan, you’ll see that there’s a lot of Sunderland fans that have this hairstyle after all the years supporting.”
The clip went viral on Twitter, getting millions of views and thousands of likes. There was plenty of fanns reaction with Sunderland’s Wilson Isidor and Noah Sadiki left in stitches after a fan’s dig at Alexander Isak…
