I have been in football long enough to understand that for a player, the careers are short and they have got things they want to achieve. Alex is a mate and it is a tough situation because you want him to be around and helping the team, but also understand for him what he needs to do personally. I have nothing but good wishes for Alex."

Dan Burn said he has nothing but good wishes for Isak, stressed the need for clarity after the transfer window, and acknowledged players’ short careers and personal ambitions. No animosity was expressed by Burn.
