Newcastle United star Alexander Isak trains alone on Sweden duty after 'little feeling'

Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak has trained away from his Sweden team-mates as they prepare for the Nations League clash with Serbia on Saturday. The Magpies star, who turned 23 on Wednesday, has suffered a small setback which has been reported as a "little feeling".

Sweden's main radio station, SverigeRadio, confirmed Isak trained individually on Tuesday but claim the problem isn't serious. The forward has not been ruled out of the first of his country's two games during the international break.

The news may still be a concern for a Newcastle side who have already suffered with injuries to key attacking players so far this season. Isak has replaced the sidelined Callum Wilson following his arrival from Real Sociedad and is yet to play alongside Allan Saint-Maximin either.
