Alexander Isak wants to leave Newcastle United and has been trying to force a transfer to Liverpool. Newcastle owners visited his home to persuade him to rejoin the squad, but Isak reiterated his desire to join Liverpool. Isak has been on strike, skipped the entire pre-season, and missed the first two Premier League match-day squads. Newcastle have been reluctant to sell their top player and rejected a £110 million offer from Liverpool. Liverpool remain interested and are prepared to pay a premium and improve their bid. Newcastle may need to sanction a departure and sign quality replacements.
Alexander Isak has been heavily linked with a move away from Newcastle United, and the player has been trying to force a move to Liverpool. Newcastle United owners held talks with the player at his home yesterday, and the player has now reiterated his desire to leave the club and join Liverpool. According to a report from The Telegraph, the player remains adamant that he wants his dream move to the Premier League champions.
Co-owner Jamie Reuben and a PIF delegation visited the Sweden international's home on Monday to convince him to rejoin the team and stay at the club. It will be interesting to see if Newcastle are willing to soften their stance and let him move on. The Premier League side have been unwilling to lose their best player, but Isak has been on strike and he has skipped the entire pre-season with them. He has not been a part of their match-day squad in the first two Premier League games of the season either.
