The face-to-face discussions Newcastle United’s ownership group held with Alexander Isak have not come to a positive resolution for any party involved, reports have claimed, with manager Eddie Howe calling for “clarity” to move forward.
In his attempts to secure a move to Liverpool, Isak has distanced himself from first-team activities at Newcastle, starting with his absence from the club’s pre-season tour of Asia. There was a brief spell training with his former club Real Sociedad before returning to Tyneside to remain in defiant isolation. Isak underscored this stance with a public statement declaring that “the relationship can’t continue” last week.
