Newcastle's preparations for the new season have been rocked with Alexander Isak informing the club of his desire to explore a move away amid links to Liverpool.

For Alexander Isak, Man United are not a part of the conversation. Man United want to sign a top striker, but Isak is too expensive. So, Man United are not working on this deal.

Football's transfer window often defaults to a mercantile focus rather than a sporting one. Alexander Isak emerges as a target for Newcastle amidst a troubling pre-season, highlighting the financial pressures on clubs.

Alexander Isak's situation at Newcastle reflects a trend where top Premier League teams are accumulating significant talent in forward positions, aiming for dominant attacking prowess.

"If we lost any player it would upset our tight-knit group that's been together for two or three years now. Any player that leaves, it doesn't help but from our point of view we're just going to control what we can control."

"I always try and focus on the present and the now, and Alex being the person he is, one of the best attackers in the world. I think there's always going to be noise around him, but he's the type of player who is always staying focused."

Liverpool are considering a blockbuster £120 million ($A247m) bid for Newcastle striker Alexander Isak despite the Magpies' desire to hold onto the Sweden star.
