Alexander Isak appears highly likely to leave Newcastle this summer amid a completely broken relationship with the club and obvious unhappiness. Newcastle could receive substantial funds by selling Isak, potentially to Liverpool. Jean-Philippe Mateta of Crystal Palace is recommended as a ready-made Premier League replacement, having shone at Palace and fitting a system with wingers delivering crosses into the box. Other reported striker targets include Benjamin Sesko, Joao Pedro, Hugo Ekitike, and Ollie Watkins. Mateta has also been linked with Manchester United previously, but that move did not materialise.
Isak seems highly likely to leave Newcastle this summer, with his relationship with the Magpies now completely broken, according to CaughtOffside sources. It seems likely that Newcastle will have to back down and let Isak go as it seems pointless to keep such an obviously unhappy player. The Sweden international has been a star performer for NUFC, but they could bank huge money from selling him to his preferred next destination Liverpool.
Newcastle are at that stage at the moment that if they lose Isak, why wouldn't you look at Mateta? he asked. He's one of the names that has not really been mentioned. I'm thinking you've got wingers who put balls into the box Mateta has shone during his time at Palace and it makes sense that he could perhaps earn himself a bigger move before too long.
