Newcastle United have officially replied to Alexander Isak’s Instagram post, in which he accused the club of 'broken promises' and declared his desire to leave.In a statement published just hours

It did not take long for Newcastle to respond, questioning Isak’s claims and ending with insistence that the Sweden striker will be “welcomed” back into the squad when he feels ready to return.

Despite snatching Hugo Ekitike for a huge fee in the 2025 summer transfer window, Liverpool have not stopped searching for attacking talent as their frontline overhaul continues.

The Alexander Isak saga rumbles on at a very slow pace as Newcastle United struggle to find a solution in the summer transfer window. The striker is determined to leave St James’ Park this summer

Alexander Isak changed the tone of his transfer saga late on Tuesday night with an explosive statement, accusing Newcastle United of “broken promises” and “lost trust” with Liverpool still strongly linked with a move for the Swedish striker.

Yoane Wissa continues to be heavily linked with a move to Newcastle United. While the Brentford striker may be viewed as a potential replacement for Alexander Isak, he emerged as a target for the Magpies following the expiry of Callum Wilson's contract.

NEWCASTLE United hit back at Alexander Isak with a blistering statement of their own, dismissing the striker's claims that he was told he'd be allowed to leave this summer and, crucially, saying they don't expect the "conditions of a sale" to be met in the final stages of the window.

The club are close to signing Brentford’s Yoane Wissa, but have missed out on targets such as Joao Pedro, Benjamin Sesko and Hugo Ekitike from the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool. Meanwhile, star striker Alexander Isak has demanded to leave the club and is believed to be leaning towards Liverpool.

Newcastle need two strikers through the door before they green light an exit for Isak. Yoane Wissa is a top target but is viewed as a replacement for Wilson rather than an alternative to Isak, meaning another forward would still need to come in.
