The Alexander Isak saga has taken an explosive turn. The 25-year-old Swedish striker has made it crystal clear: he will never play for Newcastle again.
Things have gone from tense to outright hostile. Eager to join Liverpool, Isak has skipped the entire pre-season and is expected to miss the Magpies’ Premier League opener against Aston Villa. According to The Athletic, the Swede considers his time at St James’ Park over and has no intention of returning under Eddie Howe’s management — a calculated standoff aimed at forcing a move to Anfield.
€138 million? Not enough…
Liverpool have already tabled a €138 million bid, but Newcastle turned it down. Still, if the offer rises and a replacement is secured, the Magpies could soften their stance.
The Reds, eager to add Isak’s power and clinical finishing to their attack, are keeping a close eye on the situation… and could strike big before the transfer window slams shut.
