Alexander Isak Causing a Stir as Agreement Reached on Liverpool Target's Behaviour - Liverpool Echo

ENGLAND, UNITED KINGDOM, AUG 12 – Newcastle rejected Liverpool's �110 million bid and demands a higher offer or a replacement before considering striker Alexander Isak's transfer, with the deadline on September 1.

  • Newcastle United have given Alexander Isak a clear deadline regarding his transfer status, while he continues to train separately and refuses to return to the team as of August 2025.
  • Isak, who joined Newcastle from Real Sociedad in 2022 and scored a career-best 27 goals last season, has expressed a firm desire to leave and cut off contract talks.
  • Newcastle rejected a roughly £110 million bid from Liverpool and stated they will only consider a sale if a more serious offer, possibly around £150 million, arrives.
  • Pundits like Ally McCoist criticized Isak's conduct by saying he is 'throwing the toys out of the pram' and must honour his contract, while Michael Owen suggested the situation might be overblown.
  • The stalemate leaves Isak’s future uncertain, Newcastle firm on their stance, and Liverpool yet to make an improved bid as transfer deadline approaches.
