Hours before the Newcastle game, there’s a transfer update on Alexander Isak, with a strict timeline established for a deal with Liverpool.
A significant update has emerged regarding the transfer situation of Alexander Isak ahead of Newcastle United’s match against Leeds United.
In recent weeks, the 25-year-old has frequently been rumored to be leaving St. James’ Park. Despite this, Newcastle has consistently asserted that the Swedish international is not for sale.
However, Isak took to social media to express his frustrations, claiming that “promises” had been broken. Earlier this summer, Liverpool had a bid turned down but may be preparing a new offer.
This potential shift comes after Newcastle secured the signing of Nick Woltemade from Stuttgart, which could create an opportunity for Isak to depart.
As Newcastle prepares for their Premier League clash against Leeds on Saturday evening, journalist Jan Aage Fjortoft shared a major update on social media, indicating that Isak’s move to Liverpool is “done” and could happen soon. He reported a fee of £130 million for the deal.
When asked about the transfer saga, Magpies manager Eddie Howe acknowledged that it was beyond his control. He stated, “I have been in this position for a long time regarding Alex. It’s important for me to focus on the players who need my attention and not get sidetracked.”
Howe emphasized that others are handling the transfer situation, allowing him to concentrate on achieving results with the team. He remarked on the challenges faced this summer but noted that the players have managed the distractions well.
