Alexander Isak's availability for Newcastle's pivotal match against Everton remains uncertain as he has not yet trained due to a groin injury. Having scored 23 goals this season, a loss of Isak would significantly impact Newcastle's top-five chase for next season's Champions League. Manager Eddie Howe mentioned that Isak has shown improvement, and they will assess his condition closer to the match. Other team injuries also pose challenges, making the upcoming fixture even more critical for Newcastle's standings in the Premier League.
"Alex is doing okay, hasn't trained with us yet but has made good progress. Next few days will be crucial to his availability for the weekend."
"We will leave it until tomorrow [before deciding if Isak can play], but this week he has been training just individually and building up his load."
